ADT before Surgery?
(T3bM0n0 and no evidence of cancer outside the gland as of May 25 PSMA PET scan, but I am told I am intermediate/unfavorable and my
PSA
went from 10 to 12 in only a month.) Today is August 18.

miffed!!
I had a letter last week with the results of tests to see if I have RA or
PsA
. Rheumatologist has said it’s RA even though I have
PsA
symptoms. My hands show extensive grade 2 synovial thickening on both my hands and wrist . Right hand worse and changing shape.

CHAMP Trial/Small Cell Chemo Update
His
PSA
had been undetectable so it really threw us for a loop. My dad finished 6 sessions of carbo & etoposide chemo about 3 weeks ago. He is still randomly vomiting and very weak with a low hemoglobin. He had a scan Wednesday and met with his doc, Dr.

And on it goes…..
From the ‘good news’ department: Joe’s
PSA
dropped from 12+ to <6 after 2nd dose of Pluvicto. It’s a roller coaster…… Today is a new day! Let’s grab all the joy we can while we can! Thanks for being here. I very often think of this group while pacing doctor’s offices or the ER.

OVM 200 clinical trial on TV
The ‘shout out’ is for ovarian cancers so I may not have had an immune response but I have heard nothing formally except last weeks scans still showed NED and
PSA
is still undetectable 11 months after finishing all treatment bar ADT and Erleada May be of interest

Pluvicto works but at what cost
Previously on Firmagon, Xtandi worked for awhile, nothing with Xofigo and a few rounds of Jevtana didn’t help and caused problems, also had localized XRT - but had to have chemo to qualify for Pluvicto which is a great advanced treatment for many of us After multiple delays getting Pluvicto with

PSMA - how is this?
PSA
: Two
PSA
tests in the last week (8/23) were 6 and 7 (7 when done 2 months ago) so I think 6-7 is my
PSA
although it changes by at least 0.5 every test (??). MRI (5/23) Second MRI done (following MRI 6 months ago (PIRADS3).

Starting pluvicto in another month
They stopped the chemo due to rising
PSA
so I qualify for the pluvicto now and qualify fir the PET scan in two weeks. I hope this works and get longer time being around so it will be worth it. I read where prebiotic will help but what about supplements to help with the side effects ?

low back problems
My
PSA
has been undetectable since early in my ADT regimen, and remained so as recently as 2 weeks ago. I began to have low back pain, sometimes extending to my hips and glutes, but no further, around 6 weeks ago.

looking for advice.
His
PSA
dropped to <0.05. This lasted until September 2020 when his
PSA
started to increase 0.46. And continued to rise. Went to the UK for a PSMA scan as none available in ireland. Scan showed 1 pelvic lymph node involved.

Value of LDH
A young oncologist where I had my PSMA scan requested
PSA
, testosterone and LDH tests to go along with the scan. My LDH was at the low end of the "range" (but we still didn't discuss it LOL). My question is what part (if any) will/should LDH play in my treatment going forward ?

Update post follow up PSMA PET/CT
Kwon at Mayo clinic somehow got my insurance to pay for even though my
PSA
was undetectable. It defined a abdominal retro-aortic mass that was significantly avid. Underwent 4 weeks of standard IMRT with Dr.
