Radiation PSA, Orgovyx, Bone density
Rouge clone radiation on 10/31/23 has PSA continuing to drop to 0.85. MO plans to monitor PSA before requesting PSMA scan (insurance) unless it is increasing. Considering switch from Eligard to Orgovyx if PSA looks good in early Feb since Orgovyx apparently has less severe SE and doesn't tie me to

Docetaxel and Carboplatin
I’ve been on the PC journey for 12 years. I’ve had lupron and all the standard “poisons” that we get, including Pluvicto. My PSA is now up to 99.5. I have bone mets in my lower back and sacrum w periodic pain that’s controlled w pain meds. My oncologist is recommending a chemo concoction of Docetaxel

Experience, thus far with Lupron and Abiraterone
I am 78 years old. I was diagnosed in May 2022 with PCa after my PSA was measured at 23.79. I have no other health issues. Following the determination that PCa was still within the prostrate capsule and had not spread to any other organ, I was placed on Lupron (6 monthly IM injections for 2 years). Clinically

Right phrenic nerve paralysis
Path from RP showed extensive perineural involvement. No other risk factors for phrenic nerve paralysis. Haven't talked to MO yet, but sure concerned it's tumor invasion. PSA still <0.04.

Testosterone increase after injection
I recently had my 6 month dose of Camcevi 42mg and my testosterone went from 7 t0 55 rights after the injection. My PSA remained the same at 0.1 . Is this normal for my testosterone to jump 48 points. Oncologist says he is more concerned with my PSA. Also the injection of the Camcevi was in my lower

options after Docetaxel
Hi- I have posted before concerning my brother’s prostate treatment. To give a brief overview- my brother was diagnosed in March 2021. He responded well to Abiraterone for 18 months. Once his PSA starting trending upwards he was put on several sessions of Docetaxel. Unfortunately at this time, he

clinical trials and dropped off a cliff
Five years ago I joined the Astra Zeneca clinical trial of Olaparib with Zytiga, through my oncologist at Fox Chase in Philadelphia. Earlier this year A-Z ended the trial and applied for FDA approval of the combo, it does seem to help some of us. I learned that I had been taking the placebo, not the

PSA Roller Coaster ride!
Back a couple days ago, I posted a question about my PSA being undectable since July 2022. (<0.01) then this month is up to 2.22. I asked what is next etc. I had an appointment with my MO on 19 Dec 2023, they generally do lab work at the cancer center before they give me lupron. I ask them if

Starting Chemo again, Cabazitaxel Has anybody experienced any side effects that have been unusually bad?
After having been NED for the past six years I now have to go back on Chemo treatments. The first round of Chemo was with Taxotere and now My Cancer has become castrate resistant. PSA is now no longer a good indicator for disease progression. I'm not looking forward to doing this but it's what has to

Orgyvx + alternative treatment
On Dec 1 I took two Orgyvx and dropped my PSA from 70 to 27.8 on Dec 15. I took one more Orgyvx Dec 15 and it dropped to 14.8 on Jan15. At this level I believe the alternative, clioquinol + zinc + ivermectine, will kill more cancer cells than my body produces new ones. On Feb 13, I meet my oncologist

HealthUnlocked Search And Reply Invisibility
HealthUnlocked is great. I enjoy the value of the material and the personalities on the MaleCare Advanced Prostate Cancer forum. I also mostly post replies, including detailed replies that could be root posts. But I was inspired to post them as a reply in the context of a discussion initiated by someone

Orgovyx + Abiaterone?
I have very high risk prostate cancer (Gleason 9, negative PSMA for spread, MRI suggests possible spread to seminal vessel, PSA in 7s before treatment). Due to cardiac history (stroke and heart attack) MO is being cautious and has started dosing Eligard at 1 Month intervals to make sure I am doing ok

Bicalutamide and Eligard
PSA went up to 0.87. Doctor recommend Eligard (Lupron) with bicalutimide and dutasteride. No choice. I went thru thus on Jan 10, 2024. Hospital said I have to run thru Eligard for 24 months on a quarterly basis. Every 3 month. Doctor Said Eligard works only for 2 years, and I have to find another
