Radiation for Salvage Treatment
I am about to start salvage treatment after a failed surgery and a rising PSA value of 0.1. However, I would like to know if weeks of external radiation with ADT, is the best treatment option here. The idea of blindly radiating pelvic area with a re-recurrence a few years later does not appeal to me.

NDT on NHS
Hi everyone 😊 I just wanted to ask if there was anyone out there who gets their NDT prescribed by the NHS? I am having the argument with my GP at the moment, as I don’t convert, but just wanted to know if anyone out there had managed to get it from their NHS doctor. Thanks

Update on my father
I just wanted to post a quick update on my father. He has metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer. He’s been on ADT - Eligard shots every 3 months and prednisone + zytiga everyday. It’s challenging as I work with him and see all the ins and outs of his behaviour while on those meds. He remains

Very low TSH
Hi folks,I was on NDT and my Tsh went down to less than 0.005 from 3.59 Is this normal? Worrying? My GP told me to come off meds immediately.

Met with Radiation Oncologist
Met with radiation oncologist today. His recommendation was Cyberknife, no ADT. He did say that if I felt more comfortable with surgery that there was an "amazing" surgeon within 100 miles that he would recommend. I liked the guy, he has been doing Cyberknife for years and felt that with a co-existing

Firmagon vs Lupron vs Orgovyxx
Is there any difference in cost/effectiveness? My urologist wanted me to start hormone therapy with Firmagon, but my radiation oncologist wanted me to go on Orgovyxx instead...any thoughts? Thank you!

Revisiting Intermittent Therapy in Metastatic Prostate Cancer
The A-Dream Phase 2 trial is taking a second look at intermittent therapy for mHSPCa. In the study they hope to answer the question 1. Can intermittent therapy (a break from treatment) for high responders (PSA < .2 over 18-24 mos) on ADT+ARPi be more effective than continuous ADT (the current standard

taxotere and PSA
adt stopped 9/22, daralutamide mono therapy until 7/23. Three rounds of docetaxel until 7/17/23. PSA rose from 4.9 to 5.1. PSMA scan showed decline in bone Mets. Tried a bit of fasting.

Can you reject GNRH analogues? Consequences? Please help.
Hi there, I'm going in for my second Endo surgery next week, 9cm endometrioma, and the MRI showed a few other lesions. My last surgery was 6 years ago, and they removed a 16m endometrioma. The surgeon called last week in response to some questions I had and made an offhand remark about having a shot

How long does it take for NDT Thyroid-S to leave your system?
I've got to book in for my annual blood test with my GP. I had my thyroid fully removed in 2008 & I'm on T3 only 20mcg 3 X day.A few months ago I swapped to NDT Thyroid-S & I've stopped taking my T3. I feel better than I've felt in years. My question is how long does it take for NDT Thyroid-S to leave

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

looking for a reliable source
I live in the US so any suggestions where I can order T3 /T4 from would be appreciated. I have a dr that I've been going to on and off for years and he's retiring soon and no one is taking over his practice. He's primarily a "diet" dr clinic which is cheaper than going the endo way and believes in NDT
