Lupron and scalp hair growth?
Two months on Lupron and I swear the hair on my scalp is growing thicker, and maybe even filling in places that were really sparse. I was never completely bald, but definitely had that male pattern baldness well on its way. Am I crazy, or is this possible? Have others noticed same? Maybe lack of testosterone

ADT Holiday Unexpected Consequences
After stopping Lupron and then, 5 months later abiraterone/dexamethasone, I began to experience what I believe to be arthritis joint pains. Not only in my hips (previously diagnosed with degenerative osteoarthritis) but other joints as well. I did a two week taper-off from the dex but I believe, and

Eligard v Lupron
I had a three month Eligard injection three months ago and experienced "mild" side effects. My next injection a week ago was a three month Lupron shot. I feel that the side effects are much more pronounced. A few days ago I passed out after getting out of my hot tub. I exercise regularly, particularly

warning about Provenge
I recently began the Provenge protocol at UCLA, with MCRPC. I was on Lupron + Zytiga for almost 4 years. During the last 2 hrs my PSA was undetectable. Then a few months ago my PSA began a steady climb up to about 0.1 when I began Provenge. I had no side effects from the first infusion. However

Prednisone + Zytiga + Lupron -- Loss of Height?
After a month of VMAT radiation I started on Prednisone 5 mg, Zytiga 1000 mg, and Lupron about 2 months ago. My height at the end of radiation was 73". At my first checkup a month from that my height was down to about 70.5". After a lot of reading and thinking about 2 weeks ago I added Vitamin K2

Xtandi
My husband started Xtandi about 2 months ago after Lupron starting not working. PSA went down 150 points first month, then went up 19 points last time went down 12 points. Does this mean Xtandi is not working for him? We were expecting it to go down a lot. Anyone else have this experience? Thanks

Should I seek radiation treatment to my spine will undergoing ADT. There is pain.
I started Lupron about a month ago and will start Zytiga next week so maybe I’m just being impatient but, man I’m having very real dull pain in my T2 vertebrae where the cancer lit up. The Radiologist wants to zap it but there is disagreement among the ranks that say in time the cancer on the spine will

Long term muscle pain from Lupron shots?
I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced delayed pain in the butt-cheek muscle at the site of several Lupron injections over 2 years ago. My last Lupron shot was in April 2020. I was getting 3-month shots for 18 months total, so each butt cheek got 3 shots each. Recently I've been experiencing

Another week of complete agony
Over the past couple months I have had 3 episodes of extreme pain that last 2-3 days and they magically go away as fast as the came. The pain is most always in areas where I have bone mets, so I don't know if it is directly because of the mets, or maybe caused by Lupron and/or Zytiga. This past Tuesday

Entering a New Stage Moving to Provenge
Hi Gents and Caregivers, I have had this motherf*cker of a disease for over 17 years. A few months back I had my first PSMA PET scan. And I have entered a new stage, Stage IV, that is. The scan showed progression to many different areas on my skeleton. For over four years, I had been on what I called

Anything else?
Hello – I wanted to follow up with a question I have regarding my care. What else should I be doing or consider at this point? I had a prostatectomy in September 2021 after I ran a self ordered blood test in April 2021 and had a psa of 15.2. Asymptomatic and no signs or family history. RP pathology

Insurance denied my test, again, even after showing, as requested, rising PSA post surgery (.64 at 90 days after RALP then .9 after another 4 weeks). Then when RO called them, 3 days in a row, they say they are having computer issues. Ugh. Wondering if I should be patient in the appeal or start the
