hair loss
I was wondering what others experience has been with hair loss during docetaxel. I completed my 10th round on May 2. After my first five treatments, I didn’t really lose any hair, and then the last five it got thinner, but I still had a decent amount. Now, over a month since my last treatment I seem

Five years later
Good day to all fellow warriors, I used to post as Arnie1970, but that account stopped working. After the initial scare of a stage 4 cancer diagnosis, a lot has happened. Four grand children were born( two boys, two girls). I stopped working, and we traveled a lot. Even though I stopped writing.

Looking for vitamin C infusions in Perth, Western Australia without glutathione?
Dear all Vitamin C infusions were tremendously helpful for my Dad in 2017 when he was diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer and underwent a prostatectomy, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Now trying to find them again. Those I have found include glutathione which I think is not good with cancer.

After Lupron I have been having seizures
Hi, In December 2023 I decided to finally undergo treatment for my prostate cancer, Gleason scale 6, with a high PSA of 63 (or 48 on another test) I had had this cancer for eight years WITHOUT it spreading. But doctors kept warning (I would almost say harassing) me, so... I underwent one shot of lupron

How do I update my bio?
My bio on Health Unlocked website needs updating. How do I do that? I can't seem to update my bio from 2023. I'm interested in adding PSAs and testosterone quarterly blood tests from 2023 and 2024. My good new is that my PSA has been 0.01 "nearly undetectable" for more than a year. My MO said don't

T never recovered after ADT and 44 EBRT sessions.
I had gleason 7 /3+4. Completed ADT and EBRT (44 sessions) November of 2020. Undetectable psa up until 6 months ago. Then went to 0.1. I had been taking Androgel ( 2 pumps daily) my MO declared that I was " out of remission" and I then stopped the TRT. Since then, I've had two psa tests at 3 month intervals

Anyone treated with enzalutamide +cabazitaxel?
Hi, I have stage4b with extensive bone mets. I've had sequentially ADT+abiraterone; docetaxel+carboplatin; Pluvicto. PSA never got below 3. Latest CT bone scan shows progression in a few areas. RO will zap the progressing areas locally. MO suggested cabazitaxel (1st choice) or enzalutamide (discouraged

Patient refuses abiraterone
From a very concerned daughter: My father was prescribed ADT, abiraterone, and prednisone. He started ADT earlier before the other two were added to the regimen, about one month ago. Since then, he has been experiencing a lot of side effects, including serious hot flashes, elevated blood pressure,

Surprising TRT research results in PCa patients
I’ve been researching the implications of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) as it relates to the odds of biochemical recurrence with prostate cancer. I went down this path because my prostatectomy surgeon, who is very well respected in the field (200+ papers) and has performed over 5000 surgeries

PSA Rising and Falling during Chemo
I have been receiving chemotherapy since November 2023. Started with Docetaxel until it failed after 7 cycles. Switched to Cabazitaxel and currently on the 5th cycle. Since starting the Cabazitaxil my PSA has been raising and lowering. I am currently having some scans done to confirm if there is progression

drugs repurposing: another promising path!
not yet tested for prostate cancer (I think) but still… “But two years after starting a treatment regimen that combined ruxolitinib with the checkpoint inhibitor nivolumab—a current standard of care—87% of patients were still alive, and 46% stopped exhibiting signs of cancer progression altogether.”

Clean Keyo diet while on Lupron
Has anyone used clean Keto to lose weight without muscle while taking Lupron? I gained 20 around my middle mostly because of inactivity from fatigue. I am committed to change but cannot afford to lose any muscle. I am not thinking keto as a long term or permanent way of eating, only to force my body

PSA level from 4 (Dec 2023) to 22 (present)
Hello, I am posting on behalf of my father. He tested a level of 4 PSA back in Dec 2023; the doctor did not say much except try to keep your stress level down, etc. He felt things were feeling quite abnormal so went back to doctor April this year and tested a level of 8 PSA so he was finally referred

USP or API sources for different NDT thyroid brands
Hi, I was wondering if anybody has information about which NDT brands use which Desiccated Thyroid Extract (USP or API) sources and where these USP/API sources are manufactured? I am particularly interested to know about Armour, NP and Erfa and even the new brand Adthyza.

Importance of CLL Specialist
This excellent study was just published. Why should you get a CLL specialist? My community oncologist gave me a fish and a flow test and told me that I wouldn’t need treatment for 3-5 years. He didn’t test for IGVH and didn’t know that there is a specific TP53 test. My CLL specialist tested for 500 mutations

Castrate Resistant
I know that patients who were started at beginning with combo of, say, Lupron plus abiraterone acetate are declared castrate resistant when PSA rises in certain ways and/or progression is shown on scans. However, for someone like me, who's been on Lupron only since diagnosis, am I not castrate resistant
