PSMA Scan to be scheduled - thank you Tall Allen
I want to thank Tall Allen for his suggestion that I see an oncologist. I had a RP followed by radiation in 2013. My PSA was undetectable until 2021, when it started to rise. This week I saw a radiation oncologist (whom I found through a friend) to ask him a lot of questions and to get his advice.

Elevated CA125 from 11 to 156.
My CA 125 is normally around 11 and that’s elevated to 156 within six months. My oncologist has done PET scan, CAT scan, MRIs, and has found no tumors. I just wanted to know if is there anyone that has elevated CA, 125 that are in remission.

One questions doctors never seem to be able to answer is at what PSA level do you start to experience pain or physical problems?
One questions doctors never seem to be able to answer is at what PSA level do you start to experience pain or physical problems? If you have had surgery, Salvage Radiation, ADT, SRBT and then stopped ADT with a continuing rise in you PSA when did you start to have pain or physical problems?

Enzalutamide vs Lupron Survival
This shows the main results of the EMBARK trial, comparing Metatasis Free Survival and PSA Recurrence Free Survival for three groups: Enzalutamide only, Lupron only, or combined Enzalutamide + Lupron. The best survivals were for the combination of Enzalutamide + Lupron. Enzalutamide is a 2nd generation

Do testosterone supplements help raise testosterone levels after use of Lupron with radiation?
trying to decide to decide between surgery and radiation w/Lupron as a treatment for prostate cancer. I’m particularly concerned with how long it takes to restore testerone levels after 6 months on Lupron. Does the use of testerone supplements help restore T levels more quickly?

PALB2 Stage 4 A prostate cancer treatment plan.
My Partner has stage 4A prostate cancer spread to the nodules and has the PALB2 gene. How effective is internal and external radiation and ADT as the first line of treatment? Why can't the drs start with PARP inhibitors and chemo which is the standard of care as a second line treatment? Is it because

Ethanol Ablation
Hi, I'm wondering if anyone has experienced Ethanol Ablation on thyroid lobe? The last post I can find was 2yrs ago. I guess it must be more in use now. My husband was scheduled for right lobe removal operation next Thursday then received a letter from his Consultant yesterday saying that on checking

Pluvicto Question
Just had third Pluvicto in fusion and Spect scan today and got results. Not sure what this means. If the findings are similar compared to the last scan why does this indicate"technically successful" therapy. Also PSA went down just slightly after infusion number two but went up a little from PSA after

I wanted to get opinions regarding my life insurance 800K which will be expiring in a couple of months. I have the option to roll it over to a universal policy but it’s going to cost me 2K a month.

PSA now undetectable with 2 of 35 radiation treatments left to complete. I will start Abiraterone next week, in addition to the Lupron I’m currently on. I’m celebrating today’s victory and wanted to share here. Of course, many days have been consumed with worry over the unknown. This group has been

PSA doubled in last 30 days after 4 months stable since Provenge. What's next?
Update: PSA remained roughly 1.7 to 1.8 for last 4 months after Provenge but yesterday's 30-day PSA test revealed a jump to 3.190 so something is growing quick. I have been off of all ADT since finishing fourth LU-177 injection five months ago and one SBRT treatment 4 months ago. After LU-177, PSA
