What does it mean?
I'm slightly embarrassed to be asking strangers on the internet, but I'm a little frustrated by the lack of information given by the doctors. My dad (63) just got diagnosed - Gleason score 8 - and after a new scan they've concluded there's two mets - one in the pelvic lymph node and one in the seminal

Too Many Black Men Dying From Prostate Cancer
No matter what you think about OJ Simpson, you all must agree that too many Black men are dying from prostate cancer. Prostate cancer kills Black men at over 2.4 times the rate that it kills White men. If you want to do something, even if you only have 30 seconds a year and no money to donate, sign

Cancer takes another brave man
My wonderful husband passed away yesterday after fighting the beast for 15 years. Gleason 8 all but one core positive. He was so strong tried so hard, 2 clinical trials radiation, Zytiga, Xofigo, lupron for the entire time. Finally at age 65 his body could take no more, he lost over 40 pounds, no energy

Autovaccination seems a hot topic lately: Mt. Sinai autovaccination technique to turn cold prostate cancer hot (Phase 1)
ok, I am exposing myself to j-o-h-n in more than one way with that title... This is for regional leagues (locally advanced PCa), while we are the NFL of prostate cancer here, but the fact that a cold cancer was turned hot is very promising as it has always been the main limit of immuno therapies applied

Are endocrinologists of any help after ADT?
After ADT, my MO told me that handling things like Prolia management won't be in her bailiwick. I didn't ask about post-ADT SE's and recovery from same. Hot flashes, low T, BMD loss, and last not least sarcopenia. What is the community's experience with how post-treatment SE's are best handled? Are

Podcast Episode with Abraham Morgentaler, MD about Testosterone and Prostate Cancer
This great podcast, "You are not broken," is by a female urologist, Dr. Kelly Casperson. She often explores misconceptions about hormones.

Vacation from Lupron/Zytiga - Temporary or Permanent!
I have been on ADT (Lupron/Zytiga) for 2.5 years. PSA and testosterone immeasurable currently. Looking to go on "vacation" from meds. History: Gleason 8/9 with a PSA of only 1.89 (on Finasteride). CT/Bone scan did not show any definite metastasis. PSMA PET showed "possible" metastasis in 4 spots

Robotic wedge lung resection
During my pet scan a lung shadow was reported. Biopsy failed to get tissue but Drs. do not think it is from the stage 2/3 prostate cancer. They recommend a wedge resection via a daVinci mechanism to remove it. I'd like to hear from someone who has had that surgery but since it may be tangential to this

Starting Abiraterone and predniSONE

Zytiga vs Nubeqa for Triple Therapy
Hi, I've recently received a diagnosis of Stage 4 prostate cancer, which is high volume and hormone-sensitive. I've consulted with 3 oncologist and all recommend triple therapy: Lupron alongside 6 rounds of Docetaxel, plus an ARPI. While two oncologists recommend Nubeqa, one strongly advocates for Zytiga

Why don't doctors prescribe Dutasteride more often?
I get this question from a lot of men that have prostate cancer. Although the black label warning is a concern to some doctors, and has been discussed here in previous posts, I think the main reason is simply that most doctors don't know about it. Here is the single best paper reviewing the three major

PSMA Scans and False Positives
So I saw my MO yesterday to review my ongoing treatment of Xtandi and Lupron. Been 3 months so far with no real side effects except hot flashes. My PSMA scan showed prostate and one met to sacrum. Prostate treated with 28 rounds of EBRT. MO says since sacrum is so close to prostrate it might have

Reaction to docetaxel twice now.

Last time they tried again and it went through okay. Had meds to mitigate but not prevented a reaction. They aren’t go to try the infusion
