PSMA Pet Scan results
My Dad has been on Abiraterone, Prednisone and Lupron for 2.5 years. He already had back in 2021 radiation to prostate, lymph nodes and 2 ribs. His PSA started going up and we just got the results from PSMA Pet Scan: “Highly PSMA positive tumor in the left prostate gland, increased in intensity and spatial

Inulin
Hi AllLooking for some advice on Inulin...dietary fibre. Wondering wether to give it a go reading about it, seems to benefit just about everything!! Is it good for us 'Thyroids' though? Has anyone tried it? And does it cause bloatedness/flatulance/diarrhoea? If it helps constipation, cholesterol, belly

Final Pluvicto shot and things OK
I just had my 6th, and final, injection. Feeling well but everyone concerned with kidney function dropping -- hopefully transient and not an on-going trend, on the plus side this is the last time it has to deal with all that radioactive liquid. Chugging water and peeing like a champ! To review:

FDG elements of PSMA scan
I had a FDG scan a few days ago . At the heart of my confusion is the function of FDG in giving a positive outcome to Pluvicto infusions. Is it a good thing to have lots of 'FDG Avid' showing up, or do you want those aspects of the scan to be as hidden as possible (so that the PSMA -Avid cells can be

Dutasteride reduces PSA by 40% over 6 months
This companion chart from data reported in Moore (2017) compares PSA, at baseline and at 6 months, comparing placebo to Dutasteride. This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. The cohort included Low and Intermediate Risk men, GS-6-7, baseline PSA = 6-7, median age 64 y.o

How long for hair (lashes/brows) to grow after nab Paclitaxel (Abraxane)?
Hi all, apologies if this question has been asked in the past. It's now 4 weeks from my 6th and last chemo (carboplatin and nab paclitaxel). I used the cold cap but it didn't exactly work on the crown of my head. I now have "some" hair on the scalp, honestly almost enough for me not to be embarrassed

Time to PSA Nadir is related to progression-free-survival
This graph from Teoh (2014) plots the relationship between Time to PSA Nadir (months) versus Time to Progression (months) (i.e., Progression Free Survival). Cohort: ADT monotherapy (No RP or RT), all metastatic patients, median 74 y.o., GS = 8-10, N=419. A cubic spline curve fit matched the data points

Testosterone was slowly recovering after stopping all meds 8/10/2023 then started dropping!
It looked like Provenge and SBRT last October had lowered and stabilized my rapidly rising PSA to around 1.8 for three months. Then three weeks ago it mysteriously doubled in a month to 3.1 A new PSMA scan showed four new scattered bone mets appearing since last PSMA scan 3 months prior. Micro mets

Abiraterone seems to be working
An update on my situation. To review, I now appear to be castrate resistant after about 6 1/2 years of being castrate sensitive. My MO put me on Abiraterone, along the existing Lupron. I had my MO appt and my PSA has fallen from 4.5 to 2 after about 7 weeks on Abi. This is my second iteration with Abi

My Cancer Journey Repost
It's time for a repost of my two-part cancer journey diary. Some "starting the journey readers" might find it helpful. Originally posted as two Health Unlocked "replies" - maybe I should make them an actual full "post". So I am pleased to report that
other than fatigue, I feel sort of normal right

Eligard injection site
I’m changing from 3 month Lupron to 6 month Eligard. Lupron has always been injected in my hip and I’m wondering if Eligard can also use the same site. Thanks in advance for your comments.

Using Enzalutamide, Darolutamide, Apalutamide only.
I've seen a number of posters here and there who say they use one of the "mides" listed above with no ADT like Lupron, Eligard, Firmagan, or Orgovyx, etc. If so, did you begin that regimen after being on first level ADT for a while along with the 'mide," or did you start on the "mide" alone at the start
