11 days after 1st Lupron jab-no side effects
When I went for the jab my
PSA
was 10.6 and my T-level was 354. I'm wondering if this is normal.

ADT + darolutamide + docetaxel (ARASENS trial) has anyone tried it?
After less than one month of regrouping and ADT only (decapeptyl - triptotrelin, which got my
PSA
from 70 to 15), my MO decided to do the ARASENS trial triplet (with my full approval, I was going to propose him this protocol). Has anyone tried it? Any suggestion?

Surgery vs SBRT Cyberknife
PSA
3.7-4.2. Met with Surgeon first, "slow growing, non aggressive" he believes is contained by looking at margins and pathology. Met with Radiology Oncologist, "favorable intermediate risk, non aggressive" he believes it is contained.

Latest PSA Unchanged
My latest
PSA
shows an unchanged value. I was hoping for a straight shot down to nadir after SBRT. Should this be of concern? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Best.

Scared looking for some advice
I found out ten months ago that I had a
PSA
of 6.4. It rose to 9.7 and recently has subsided to 8.3. I did a MRI and they said I PI-RADS 4 with a lesion in my transition zone. Seminal vesticles and Neuromuscular bundes are symmetric.

My treatment decisions
I also had been checking my
PSA
for years because of this. I couldn’t reconcile having been checking all these years to catch it early only to wait on active surveillance. I then chose to have a genetic test (Decipher) done. It came back a .76 (high risk).

Bicalutamide Vs Eligard
Gleason 4+4 and
PSA
7.9. Absolutely no symptoms whatsoever, feeling good for a 65yo. RO doesn't seem to be in any hurry.

Is there hope despite the pain? Is Cabometyx worth it?
LD has a
PSA
of over 1300 at last count and bone mets/fatigue/anemia that keep him in bed most days. He gets transfusions every 3-4 weeks to help with the anemia. It seems like we've tried everything. Pluvicto wasn't the miracle we were hoping for.

advice for docetaxel
I became castrate resistant about two years ago as my
PSA
was slowly rising. I have done Provenge and then lastly a clinical trial through Duke University. My
PSA
is now around 14, which is the highest it has been since my diagnosis.

PSA
at 6.0. Started taking Taxomere and Lupron treatments.. my
PSA
levels went from 6 to 1 to 0.2. I still have three more treatments to go.. Hope this gives hope to people. The taxomere seems to work fairly well.

PSA increasing during radiation treatment
Can
PSA
increase during radiation treatment due to cancer cells dying off? Last month 0.14 and today 0.26. On day #4 of radiation treatment. Thanks!

Fatigue after eating
PSA
is non-detectable. Scans in July showed old mets healed, and no new ones. His fatigue is the same whether we eat low carb or not so I haven't been able to find a correlation with food. Last night we had sirloin and a salad and he was out in 10 minutes.

Use it or lose it - workout questions.
PSA
kept going. Started chemo 2 weeks ago. This spring and summer I've slid way back, lots of muscular atrophy and weight loss. I'm getting ahead of the pain, at least for now.
