A-Dream iADT Protocol
It has been awhile since my last post. Short story is I responded well to the doublet therapy in Arasec (lupron+daro). MO believes there is some chance my M1B diagnosis at the start was incorrect (he refers to my case as 'discordant' - due to conflicting data - Gleason 6 but some spots lit up on

Neuropathy help?
Diagnosed June 2023, Started Lupron July, Zytiga and prednisone August, IMRT 28x 70gy, including distant oligometastatic retroperitoneal lymph nodes November. Everything going fine only minor side effects and I feel good. Then, May 1st 2024 I have sudden onset of peripheral neuropathy. Wow, what a buzzkill

GP Coming - what to ask
having my annual review tomorrow and GP is coming to see me. Looking at all my past results I wonder, with them being up and down constantly, whether I am one of those whereby Levo no longer works for me and might be keeping me ill. Diagnosed back in 2005 and it's too far back to remember how I was

Is this something that needs investigating/Or Thoughts on cause?
Im 46 F. Mild on/off non bothering pain for 2 year's. If it was a serious problem, would it have got worse by now as it hasnt and just comes and goes since then? It's more the not knowing the cause, than the pain that bothers me. It started in the left breast and armpit. (I've put the breast pain down

Walsh's Folly?
I posted earlier that I had to ask ChatGPt "who came up with the 'gasoline on a fire' characterization regarding the relationship of testosterone and prostate cancer" and that Chat GPT had answered -- Dr. Patrick Walsh -- (father of the radical prostatectomy.) In that post, discussion turned to Walsh's

Life after ADT
Hello, I finished my ADT treatment 7 months ago ( ORGOVYX for 22 months . Still having emotional rollercoaster. Held my own during the cancer journey ( Brachy therapy, 25 sessions of IMRT, then ORGOVYX. I guess I was lucky only mind numbing, soul crushing fatigue, bad brain fog/confusion, shrunken

COMBINATION THERAPY IS NOW UNDER REVIEW
This review indicates how and why combination therapy may be used in treatment. Interesting in itself, but another example of cherry-picking evidence ( we aren't mentioned in spite of starting this concept in 2012. Good cliquish admission where the "nonprofessionals"are best kept well out of the limelight

Celebrex and Curcumin and Magnesium.
I recently received a question from a fellow warrior based on a comment I had made on an older post that he had started. The question was what I thought about Naproxen compered to Celebrex and I told him I had very limited experience with Naproxen. I then clicked on older posts about nsaids and prostate

Quick update on my journey
My bio has most of the brief history of my recent diagnosis. I’m on month 3 of Xtandi plus Orgovyx and just met with Rad Onc at Duke for initial consultation. Plan is low dose IMRT over 20 days (every day for 5 days in a row each week). Expect to remain on existing doublet Tx for at least the next

"Gasoline" Source
I have been trying to find the source for the observation? that "Testosterone to prostate cancer is like gasoline on a fire". I finally asked Bing Copilot and ChatGPT-- who came up with the answer. Me: What is the source of the "gasoline on a fire" theory in prostate cancer? ChatGPT: Dr. Patrick

ADT + Docetaxel
Am mCRPC and will be starting Docetaxel soon, after apparent failure of Zytiga. Would like to know if I should continue the ADT (zoladex), which I have tolerated well for 3 years. Most trial info I have found (STAMPEDE, CHAARTED) tests ADT alone vs ADT + Docetaxel, where the combination outcome is

Sylvia Plath and B12?
Has anyone else pondered on the links here? Although I can find all sorts of discussion about her early stresses, repeated losses and struggle with depression, even chemical imbalances, possible bipolar, not a jot can I find about the B12 deficiency which she would have had at least at one point, even

ADT and Increased Blood Sugar

My primary care physician prescribed Metformin, which seemed to reduce or maintain these levels. I have been taking Orgovyx since 9/23 and expect to complete the regimine in early

Salvage options?
Hello again, I have a few more questions, to help my husband decide between surgery and brachyboost. For context, he is localized Gleason 9. (1) Is the course of salvage radiation after RP typically the same as it would have been if the initial treatment had been radiation therapy? Or would it require
