He has just finished 6 rounds of
Taxotere
chemotherapy and has been taking Orgovyx and Nubeqa since his diagnosis. I am interested in exploring more holistic approaches in going foward with his treatment.

After 2 Nuclear Ligand treatments should I still have severe bone pain in my lower back?
He opted out of taking chemo as one of his biopsies (108 page report from Germany) revealed the normal protocol of
taxotere
would not be effective against his cancer.

Seeking options/opinions
Decided to rechallenge with
taxotere
. (Zytiga worked fir about year, Xtandi for month before trying Pluvicto). I managed one
taxotere
, psa stopped going up, now at 620 after. Decided to move to #2 but blood numbers needed to be ok. Hemoglobin too low again, and platelets declining.

Radiation
I am faced with starting a six dose regimen of
taxotere
now since ADT does not seem to be working according to PSMA scans. My psa remains at 1.8 even though the scan showed a small tissue met to shoulder area (no bone). The met did not cause any psa increase. I am a bit gun shy on the chemo.

Taxotere
I am looking for any information regarding men with prostate cancer, who have had chemo using
Taxotere
. Please tell me what we should expect with the chemo treatments such as side effect and how it might effect him, how long did it take for PSA to decrease.

PSA doubled 3 months after chemo - normal or a concern?
I’m currently on Lupron and NUBEQA, and completed 6 rounds of
taxotere
at the end of April (Triplet Therapy). PSA cut in half every three weeks while on the chemo going from 0.944 in January to 0.013 in April.

Taxotere
Have read that a follow up to the radiation is now
Taxotere
or another chemo. Has anyone has this therapy and what were your results? Did it keep the PC from returning or spreading ? Thank you so much.

8/4/23 Update questions for MO
Choose from and possibly combine:
Taxotere
, Xtandi, Xofigo, and Provenge. 4. Switch to xtandi or Casodex 5. Try docetaxel, which works by directly killing cancer cells, but can have substantial side effects, 6.

Chemo may be helping
Hi Fellow Fighters, Prior to my third round of
Taxotere
last Friday, I had blood work done. After 2 rounds, my PSA dropped 4.7 points. TBH, I feel like crap today, but the results are promising. My blood work also showed low cortisol levels, how concerned should I be about that? Thanks.

Things I Like About ADT
Eventually Darolutamide and
Taxotere
chemo would be added to bring that PSA down to 0.0, but in doing the obvious math the ADT clearly did all the heavy lifting. Bottom line, most of us are extremely fortunate to have a cancer that responds well to ADT.

Wife of mCRPC. You men are rockstars. Need advice
My question - If his PSA continues to decline on
Taxotere
, does he stop after 6? Based on my bio, do you have any suggestions about what’s next? Does anyone go into a temp remission, or shall we expect PSA to rise shortly after infusion stops?

Hair Loss
My husband (David) is beginning to lose some of his hair from Chemo treatment do all patients lose their hair on docetaxel (
taxotere
). It is falling out in a lot of strains when he showers. Do all patients on this chemo lose all their hair or does it just get thinner.

Taxotere and fingerprints.
After three rounds of
taxotere
to date my fingerprints aren't completely gone, but even with retraining my TouchID Mac and phone won't respond to them. To my eye they look smooth, but a close up photo reveals there's still a pattern.
