Hello! I just joined this community yesterday. My husband has been diagnosed with Gleason 8 prostate cancer with cribriform. PSA 18. His clinical dx is T1c. He had 6 out of12 positive biopsies. All were 4+4. 5 were 40% and 1 was 60%. He has the PSMA test on Monday. The doctor doesn’t think it has

Post treatment post ADT time to PSMA test
Where I am receiving treatment, ADT, LD Brachytherapy, LINAC radiotherapy (15) sessions.. PSMA pet scans are not available (Japan).

Update On Eclipse Trial-another failure. Has LU-177 worked for anyone?
In 2010 at the age of 59, I had Da Vinci surgery with a Gleason 4+5=9 and PSA of 9. Post surgical biopsy showed all margins clear with no seminal vesicle involvement and Gleason post-op score was changed to a 4+3=7. Subsequent PSA was non-detectable as tested every three months for the first two years

Any experience with Intraductal Cancer?
Not sure how this works. Hopefully you can read my profile to see where I'm at. If not, I repeat it here. My GP recommended biopsy after several annual PSA results around 4.0 Was on active surveillance since diagnosis in 2019 with biopsy Gleason 6 in two cores. Similar result in annual biopsies

Unsure of best option in early prostate cancer diagnosis.
I have had PSA tests annually for 10 years and in Oct 2023 had an elevated 6.42 result. Was referred to a urologist, whom performed a DRE. There was prostate enlargement but no tumor discovered through DRE. After discussing several options, I decided to have a biopsy on Nov 21, 2023. Dec 5, 2023,

Provenge (only) - impact on overall survival
I just got insurance approval for Provenge...out of pocket is really high so now I'm doing a cost benefit analysis in my mind. I've seen many different articles showing that Provenge ALONE only extends overall survival by 4-15 months. Does that sound correct? Tall_Allen mentioned adding xofigio for

To Chemo or Not to Chemo--that is the ?
Should I follow my MO's advice and do docetaxel? Since I'm now 78, and have read terrible accounts of chemo, I have held onto the belief that I would do everything to avoid chemo since the treatment appears to be worse than the alternative. But she's really not giving me an alternative, other than

BCF after 9 years post proton therapy
My PSA had been increasing slowly since my nadir of .75 in 2017 reaching 1.19 in 2022. Both RO and Uro weren't terribly concerned. I wanted PSMA after 3rd consecutive increase but both recommended a wait and see approach, especially the RO who seems honor bound to wait for 2.0 over nadir. I skipped

HoLEP Affect on Pca
as posted earlier, I have both BPH (80 cc) and localized prostate cancer. Clear PSMA. I’m having HoLEP surgery. Wonder how this will impact the cancer. How will PSA respond? What happens if HoLEP actually removed the cancer?

Briefly, have been on active surveillance since Fall, 2019 with periodic MRIs, biopsies (Gleason 6), etc. Also have BPH (last MRI 95cc). Last Spring PSA started
