1, 3 or 6 month ADT?
Originally, after a prostatectomy and 40 radiation treatments, I had a one month shot of Lupron followed by a six month shot of Lupron. My PSA went to undetectable. Seven years later my PSA crept up to seven and I was put on a monthly shot of Firmagon for life. My PSA is again undetectable and all scans

Pluvicto pain
my father has undergone 3 infusions of Pluvicto. He has psma and fdg completed with no significant discordance. I understand tumour flare tends to occur within the first week after infusion but he tends to have more discomfort towards the end of the cycle. We aren’t sure if it’s bone pain or muscle

Big decsions regarding SRT/ADT due to BCR post RP
My husband was had a robotic radical prostatectomy 1/2019 with no major complications or side effects. Gleason 4+3, negative margins and no positive lymph nodes. There was cribiform invasion of a nerve but all margins of the prostate and 0/13 LN were negative after surgery. His post surgical PSA was

Managing post surgery expectations
I had a radical prostatectomy and lymph node dissection on 9/12 and my catheter removed on 9/22. (Surgery was successful and I received the best pathology report possible.) As I am now at the very early stages of getting urinary control back, I'm struggling to understand what might be "normal" or "expected

Study: Cannabidiol Inhibits the Proliferation and Invasiveness of Prostate Cancer Cells
Abstract Prostate cancer is the fifth leading cause of cancer death in men, responsible for over 375,000 deaths in 2020. Novel therapeutic strategies are needed to improve outcomes. Cannabinoids, chemical components of the cannabis plant, are a possible solution. Preclinical evidence demonstrates

First post and learning as much as possible
Hi My husband is 59 and I have added as much info to my Bio as possible about him and this journey. We just found out yesterday that he is BRCA2 positive from blood germline testing. This is the first time I have posted but I have been reading everything several times a day for a few months now. He

What Helps Me With Hypochondria
Like many of you, my OCD often takes the form of hypochondria. I can't tell you the number of times I thought I was dying or the number of times I went to see a doctor because of some minor symptom. I've developed some coping strategies which helped me. I thought I'd share them here. 1. No checking

PSA bounce after LDR brachytherapy?
Hi all, First, an update, as my last full update about various issues was five weeks after LDR brachytherapy (almost two years ago), in which I reported that, thankfully, I had no urinary, bowel, or sexual function issues. That update is here in the link below, and I'm happy to report that it's all

Targeting Mets w SBRT- what’s your experience?
Have any of you guys had any luck targeting distant metastases with SBRT after your mets remained small or dormant while on ADT but after PSMA scans had showed more in number than olago (more than five mets)? My PSMA scan in January 2022 showed 10 scattered small mets so our area SBRT (Cyberknife) radiation

Opinion sought for ADT treatment duration
I started taking Orgovyx tablets last April. Then I went through the typical 45 radiation treatments of the prostate. 3 months ago my PSA had dropped from 8 to 0.7. Last week it had dropped to 0.1 ng/ml. A biopsy last year showed 1 sample identified as Gleason 8. My urologist thinks I can stop taking

What category of Intermediate Risk Am I?
I am trying to make a decision regarding HT with RT. I am 78. I have CKD 3b, and a solitary kidney. I am 6.5 years in remission from UTUC kidney cancer. A number of papers indicate that HT could be detrimental to my kidney. Those with FIR PCa could avoid HT with little risk. The following is defined

how long typically does it take from diagnosis to treatment?
Hello, my father was just diagnosed with advanced aggressive prostate cancer Gleason 9-10 (TBC). Bone scan and CT scan are next to check for spread (please God it hasn’t), but the scans are not for another 2.5 weeks! Then follow-up to discuss results a full week after that. Which seems insane that we

Psa is back
Well I made it to 27 months of upsa testing after my surgery and went from <0.01 to my first detectable of 0.01. Don’t know what this means but I guess the next few upsa tests will be telling. Maybe a lab variation maybe not.

Masofaniten +Enzalutamide This could be a game changer...Science is coming to our aid
This is a company that I was turned on to by Nalkrantz before he was removed from this board. He told me that he was in touch with a doctor that was involved with this drug. Reportedly the early testing on a single patient had been phenomenal. These are pretty amazing #s NEWS PROVIDED BY ESSA

My initial MRI and wait time for biopsy
Just got my MRI. PSA rising slowly for 3 years from 4.0 to 5.1. The MRI indicates a pi-Rad level 4 lesion 10 ml, well defined with no infiltration. Either base peripheral zone 11 to 12 o clock or transitional mid gland zone 11 to 12 o clock. Will get the location cleared up. I have an MRI fusion

Switch from Lupron/abi to Orgovyx/abi?
As I approaching my third 3 month shot of Lupron I wonder if Orgo might push out my time fence to MCRP more than Lupron, but I don't see anything on it. Lupron/abi dropped my PSA and TT very quickly so that is not an advantage, but the side effects are considered to be less - though my side effects
