Question about xtandi response during initial treatment :)
Hello, I hope everyone is doing well on here!! I posted awhile ago in regards to my dad who started on xtandi a month ago and Lupron 3 months ago. His initial PSA was 11 with bone mets when he was diagnosed. He just did blood work a week Ago and his PSA has dropped to 0.53, but his ALP went from 70 to

Lupron and Prostate Cancer
I have come across statements like: Lupron can kill prostate cancer, prevent cancer cells from growing, shrink tumor, etc. I am just curious to know what fraction of cancer cells are killed by Lupron and what fraction is kept dormant while on Lupron.

Latest PSA whilst on Abiraterone
So, only a drop to 4.1 this month with T under 3. Previous months : 4.2, 6. 6, 12.9 Been on Abiraterone since January 2020. Also on Lupron, Metformin, and Lipitor. I'm a bit concerned that I'm already at a plateau with Abiraterone. I believe that I read on HU that chemos now may get the action of Abiraterone

After Radiation Issues
Hello my dad had radiation to his humerus and hip area. About 6 weeks ago. He says he doesn’t notice any pain relief instead he feels more tired and same amount of pain and burning. I asked the Radiation Oncologist and urologist and they seem puzzled and said they have never heard of that? I looked at

Xtandi not working?
Started Xtandi a month ago after my PSA went to 8.3 almost a year after radiation and Lupron every three months also started casodex prior to Xtandi. Had second opinion from another Oncologist and said this was the right course to take and suggested have PSA in a month. Had PSA last week and PSA has

Advice concerning treatment and supplements
Hi again! I am struggling to find posts about what kind of ADT-treatment that could be least harmful to my husband who has got coronary heart disease. He is on babyaspirin, atorvastatin and metoprolol. He has got a rising PSA and 2 lymph node mets. We will ask for radiation of these. I have heard that

Lupron/Radiation Treatment and Autoimmunity
Given that older people (I'm 70) are more exposed to COVID, how would radiation and 2 years of Lupron and Casodex affect my autoimmunity, given few other chronic conditions?

When to stop taking calcium after stopping Lupron?
I was wondering when it was OK to stop taking calcium supplements after stopping Lupron? I have no issues with taking D3K2, but I am concerned that there are some current studies that show that this actually has no effect on bone density and actually at large doses can cause problems with prostate cancer

Study shows Lupron lowers chances of getting the Wuhan virus. Only four out of 5,273 PCx patients on ADT got covid and none of them died.
Prof. Andrea Alimonti and team looked at more than 9000 patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection in Veneto, Italy; they also used data on all cancer patients in the region for comparison. Among all prostate cancer patients, only 4 out of 5,273 men on ADT developed COVID-19 infection. None of the men

Question on Bicalutamide Withdrawal
There is evidence that when you are on Lupron and Bicalutamide for metastatic prostate cancer and your PSA starts rising, stopping Bicalutamide may, in some cases, lead to drop in PSA. In my case, I was on Lupron + Bicalutamide for one year for metastatic prostate cancer. My PSA dropped from 4.48 to

Question about Lupron side effects
I'm on the tail end of a 6 month Lupron treatment (single injection in late Nov) and wondering when symptoms will subside - hot flashes, belly fat, male breasts, nipple leakage, cognitive degeneration. What a lovely ride it has been! And my heart goes out to my brothers here who are on lengthy ADT programs

Husbands difficulty sleeping

Does anyone know the significance of an elevated Albion gap? My labs from today indicate a level 27, Can it be a side effect from ether the Lupron I have been taking for close to 8 years of the Zytiga I re-started about 6 months ago?
