RECOMMENDATION: He wishes to proceed with definitive EBRT to the prostate & SV. Total dose will be 81 Gy/45 fractions on TrueBeam using RapidArc VMAT with daily CBCT

Tumor Mutation Burden
Last genetic test has shwon TMB 10.86 and the orevious one (in March, 2023) showed the value of 8.68. Will increased TMB require the addition of PARP inhibitors to my current therapy consisting of Loupron and Abiraterone? Anyone has similar experience? My history can be seen under bio. Just to add that

What to do?
Hi All, At the end of August 2023 I completed 8 rounds of docetaxel. On 9/13/23 my PSA was 5.7, 10/30/23 8.25 and 11/27/23 it’s now 16.72. This year has been a shit show. I know my MO will put me on pluvicto. Here’s my quandary: I am a single gay man. Parents gone. No siblings. All I have to really

How high must the PSA levels be before cancer can be seen in a CT scan?
Following the end of my treatment (radiation, lupron, Zytiga, prednisone) with curative intent back in May, my PSA has risen from undetectable to 0.09. As discussed on another thread this is not alarming at this stage since I still have a prostate as I never had surgery to remove it. However I am

Sudden onset of severe leg pain
Yesterday my husband was strolling about the house as usual. Last night he experienced debilitating pain in his right thigh to the point he collapsed when trying to put weight on it, and then could not sleep because of the pain. He has needed a walker for even a few steps. We visited his PCP today

BAT trial update
I commenced the trial about 2 months ago and I have now had 2 cycles of treatment consisting of testosterone injections and carboplatin infusions. 5 days ago I had my first CT and bone scans and the trial leader tells me my 3 detectable rib metastases are 'stable'. The stable assessment is good enough

What is reco diet to take abi with food?
I am on Lupron and Abi two months now with <.1 PSA down from 2.2, MO says I can do abi w food if I want, so is it an okay idea to go with 500 or 250mg per day vs 1000, and if so, how many grams of fat constitute the low fat breakfast to eat with the abi? 🙂

testosterone finally moving up after Treatment.
April of 2018 I was diagnosed with stage 111 PC with a tumor against my rectum. Finally after 19 months of lupron and zytiga and 40 rounds of radiation my testosterone has hit 325. I do 3 month testing and it has held for 6 months. I can feel the difference and am not only doing more but my weight is

PSA after Biopsy
I've heard that the biopsy procedure (14 cores) can elevate future PSA results. What is the recommended number of days or weeks to pass before scheduling a follow up PSA test? Thank you!

To hell and back...
I was diagnosed with endometriosis and fibroid in my late 40s. Pain was horrendous and bleeding would make its way through my clothing. The merena coil was attempted but wouldn't stay in because of my inverted womb. Fast forward a year later I started prostap which helped hugely but is only recommended

Questions about ADT drugs and insurance
Will Medicare cover Lupron injections under part B as it is not self administered (as opposed to pills)? If so how much will they cover (with a supplement plan). Regarding Orgovyx, since it is a pill and not an injection will it be covered under Medicare part D drug coverage? and if so do all of the

Rising PSA
Hi, have updated my profile to reflect recent changes. A gradual increase in PSA (1.2) with the prospect of changes to treatment if it continues at the current rate and gets near to 4. The oncologist is suggesting probably chemo but I would like to know more about other options before that discussion

Now what?
My husband was DX April 2021 MPc, Stage IV, PSA 335, BRACA2. Lupron, Erleada, Provenge, Lynparza (still on), Zytiga/Pred (still on). PSA rose from 2.64 Feb 2023 to 44 Sept 2023. Biggest jumps on the last three months, 10 to 44. He is approved for 177lu, but there are a lot of unsuccessful stories

PSA still low but cancer progressing
I've been on ADT plus Xtandi for about a year (see my profile) and my PSA has steadily reduced and stayed low. However, my latest CT scan shows that the tumours on my bones and lymph nodes are increasing in size and there are now a few small lesions appearing in my liver for the first time. Not the news
