ALT and AST levels
In Jan/Feb I rec'd 5 treatments of SBRT and have been on Lupron and Abiraterone/
prednisone
for the past 7 months. Just had labs done, and psa is at 0.1. The concern that I have is that my ALT and AST levels were elevated from what they were before I began ADT.

How can I tell when adrenals are coming back?
After 15 months I am at 5.5mg of
prednisone
, taking it slow and doing OK, but wondering when or if I should notice adrenal activity. It doesn't seem that 5.5 is low enough to ask my PCP for a test.

Symptoms (?) at lower levels
Diagnosed with PMR in Jan. '23 and put at 20mg
prednisone
. Have now tapered slowly down to 3mg without much problem. Every time I start a taper of .5mg I do have a slight increase of pain for two to three weeks but then it fades.

Herpes (or acyclovir usage) affecting implantation after ivf embryo transfer?
I'm already doing downregulation with zorodex for a few months, then considering
prednisone
and baby aspirin for the Fet as an immune protocol but worried about another outbreak complicating things. Would love some advice.

prednisone
and has only ever got down to 8mg but then can't cope so is now on 13mg . Consultant wants him to get down to 5mg .He would have no quality of life and would be in pain too much .

GCA and Elevation
I presently am on 4mg of
prednisone
. I am feeling good and continue to be pretty active and just turned 70 year old. I walk at least 3 miles a day, bike long distances and kayak. I plan on taking a hike up to 10,000 feet next week and concerned how this might affect my GCA.

Experiencing possible neuropathy in my trunk
I am on Lupron (first shot was in March) and abiraterone and
prednisone
daily. PSA has plummeted and doing good. Prepping for chemo in May. This past Wednesday I started feeling some discomfort in my front and back. It's hard to explain.

Prednisolone Reduction
I have now been talking
prednisone
for about three and a half years. I am not being seen by a Rheumatologist but just by my GP.

why am I so tired
I have been reducing
Prednisone
every 2 weeks. I started on 40mg and I am now on 12.5mg. I have steroid induced diabetis and my readings have been very erratic. They seem to be settling down a bit.

strange reaction to my Prednisone after all these years. Highly agitated!!!
hello everyone thank you for helping me recently with the issues I’m having with pain in my ankles and in my feet I have settled on taking 5 mg of
prednisone
which is an increase from where I had been down to 1 mg in the spring and summer so it has been hard for me to go higher because of stomach issues

The continuing saga of Scout and Coco, Not all change is welcome.
I recognize that small movements of PSA at this low level do not mean much but I would be happier to see <0.01 I did 30 months of ADT using Lupron and Zytiga +
prednisone
and with Oligometastatic diagnosis my MO and RO both gave me a 40% of a "cure".

"Castration resistant"
I have had 2 Eligard shots and been on 500 mgs of Abiraterone plus 5mgs of
prednisone
daily. Can I assume I am Castration resistant?

Moving on to Provenge/Sipuleucel-t
We met with my husband's onc yesterday to discuss the next move since the 3 years of Abiraraterone/
prednisone
has run its course. His psa numbers are now around 2.0 (up from a low of .04) and psma scan indicates that bone met volume is quite low. A recent lab biopsy didn't reveal much...

Antibiotic and Actemra
I'm pretty sure, I will have a flare if I do that, unless of course, I increase my
prednisone
. Or do I hold off starting the antibiotic and take it in the 14 days between injections? Maybe I'm making a mountain out of a mole hill. Thanks for any advice. Annette

Could this be Ernest syndrome?
I know I am grasping at straws but since the
prednisone
is not working, just trying to see ifbthere maybe another explanation. The pain in my temples,jaws and back of head are worse than. Ever before.

Please help us decide on next treatment
He had 6 weeks of radiation at the time of diagnosis and has been for the past 2.5 years on Abiraterone,
Prednisone
and Lupron. As I mentioned in my prior post my Dad’s PSA started going up. He had a PSMA Pet scan and it shows activity in the left side of prostate gland and in one rib.
