Abiraterone-Firmagon ADT not working fast enough to lower PSA
So Rather than rolling over to Apalutamide in 2 months, we’ll likely instead stop ADT, watch for recurrence, then likely go to chemotherapy with
taxotere
a few months down the road. And I’m now “Grade 5” in the new Gleason system. High Grade Prostate Cancer. Make sense? Options?

The final end of the battle.
He had spot radiation and
Taxotere
. He broke a vertebra in his back and was hospitalized for 2 weeks. He started Xofigo and had 4 injections. He could not continue with the last 2 because his platelet count went to 53,000 and he was feeling very ill.

Started Taxotere question
I started
taxotere
2 weeks ago. I was wondering if anyone can answer a couple of questions. When I had SBRT the oncologist told me that the treatment may make the cancer angry and cause pain in those spots being treated.

PSA on the Move
Kwon and I agreed to 18 months of ADT, six cycles of
taxotere
and 25 more IMRT to the PLNs with boosts and wider margins around the four identified in the C11 Choline scan. PSA dropped to undetectable with the first 90 day Lupron and the first two cycles of
taxotere
.

Has anyone experienced very low platelet counts with xofigo
Taxotere
chemo failed. Now just finished my fourth injection of Xofigo. My platelet count is down to 53,000. Has anyone had any negative experiences with xofigo and low platelet counts due to bone marrow suppression. My white and red blood cell counts also low.

3rd Chemo session complete
got my 3rd
Taxotere
infusion Tuesday, so far only noticeable side effects is dry mouth this morning. Tomorrow I'll probably feel worse, but so far so good. PSA down to 0.61 , a good drop from 1.78 three weeks ago. Alkaline phosphatase down in the 'normal' range now, 98.

Taxotere response
Does it mean that
Taxotere
has stopped working? Any input is appreciated.

Out of options.
I have been treated with Erleda,
Taxotere
, Zytega, and Jevtana to no avail. My MO finally decided to do a CT scan with contrast solution and lo and behold, my liver is permeated with an aggressive prostate cancer with no useful mutations. He put me on Taxol with Carboplatin.

Casodex vs Zytiga
Doctor suggest
Taxotere
next, but I'm not keen on it. Weight 120 lbs. 72 years old

2nd chemo session done
just went through my second
Taxotere
infusion Tuesday. so far so 'good' I guess, no appetite and anything I do eat tastes like cardboard. Tested positive for Covid on Dec 23 and my hair started falling out on Dec 24, not from Covid but from the first round of Chemo.

Is this bruising normal?
Received
Taxotere
initially. Currently on Yonsa (insurance switched him from Zytiga) and methylprednisolone, plus the bad boy Lupron of course. Here is my question: he bruises horribly from the slightest touch.

Currently on chemo (

Insurance denying coverage for Radiation
After 6 treatments of
taxotere
over basically 18 weeks, scans showed "no evidence of osseous metastatic disease" and lymphs normal. Currently PSA is .18. Great news. Oncologist sent me to radiology for follow-on radiation treatment but BCBS of Illinois denied the pre-auth.

Update to Can't treat what we can't see
Went to U of M to meet with my Oncologist for approval of
Taxotere
. He was adamant on not approving chemo at this time.

We’re still here!
PSA rose fast and when it hit the 300’s with evidence of bone spread he started
taxotere
again. Since February he has been on
taxotere
, carboplatin and cabazitaxel, and various combinations and dosages of all three.

Thoughts on rising PSA
Dr. says the next consideration is
Taxotere
/chemo. He has concerns about my weight and condition as I do. This is not at my age, and what I read about side effects, a way I care to go out. Any thoughts out there?
