Any Data or MO Advice Regarding Dutasteride / Finasteride At Very Early Biochemical Recurrence?
Does anyone know of any studies or MO advice they've gotten regarding use of Dutasteride or Finasteride at very early signs of Biochemical Reccurrence (uPSA in the 0.03 - 0.1 range) prior to Salvage Radiotherapy? It's obviously going to slow PSA doubling time and thereby probably lengthen the time

PSA Response From Broccoli Sprout Extract (Sulforaphane) May Due To Just Being Moderate ADT
I forgot I ran across this a 2 years ago as many with PCa diagnosis are very interested in Sulforaphane due to a lot of excitement from a few studies a few years ago. (This fueled an explosion of supplements on Amazon.) This however is one of the more expensive supplements and my jury is still out

Hi I had a hip replacement 3months ago but still feel very tired after exercise. Is this normal after this operation. I am trying to walk every day and do my exercises as the physio suggests. I thought by now I should feel better than I do. Would like your thoughts on this for anyone out there who

Mitral valve replacement - waiting for operation, the wait time and the do's and dont's advice please
Hi all, I had an ECG on 17th July which showed severe leaking of my Mitral valve. I had an angiogram on the 28th July which showed no blockages in my arteries. I have a meeting with my cardiologist on 15th August. To date my GP or the cardio team have not given me any advice on what I should be doing

Platelets Dropping
Is this “normal” or any advice? Undergoing radiation since March, have 22 sessions done, 6 to go. Started Casodex in December to prepare to start Eligard in January. Radiation started in March. My platelets have been dropping. MO said could be due to Lupron and/or radiation. IMRT targets Gleason 9

Stratification test for ADT effectiveness
As someone who has had the awful experience of ADT side effects, I give this tool a standing ovation: https://artera.ai/arteraai-prostate-cancer-test Just approved for Medicare coverage, and just a matter of time before California and New York join the other 48 states in approving it.

What is the next step
I have one more Immunotherapy for my bladder cancer, so far all scan have shown no metastasis. Now I need to focus on my PC after more than a year of ignoring it.

Follow up to "My trajectory after a 'vacation' and a new metastasis," and a new question
I though that the recommendation of the "tumor board" at Smilow Cancer Center in New Haven, CT, would be "doublet therapy" to treat the new metastasis that was found with a PET PSMA scan, (the second one that was found after my Lupron "vacation"; the first was treated with radiation--details of my case

Red Light Therapy - Only Useful for a year?
I'm considering purchasing Symbyx's Red Light Helmet, and I would greatly appreciate comments by those who've used the device, since it ain't cheap. I'd also like to hear from people who've tried other red light devices. Finally, I read a comment by some neurologist saying that the red light helmets

mechanical heart valve patients using marijuana!!!
Hello people! I have recently (8months back)had an aortic heart valve replacement with a mechanical st Jude valve and also the grafting was done.

I'm scheduled for IMRT Radistion without the jell. Doc says the jell may push cancer microscopic cells away from the prostate.

Predisilone and knee op
I have GCA and PMR and am having a knee replacement in October. Have been told to put up my Pred. several days before the operation. I am on 3- 31/2 mg a day. Do you think 5mg would be good
