1 month vs 3 month HT injections
So I'll soon be embarking on my HT journey. The RO wants me to start on 14 days of Bicalutamide tablets, then 3 monthly injections of Eligard. So I have a few questions; 1: I remember someone mentioning on this forum that monthly injections are easier to tolerate compared to injections every 3 months

I've Dodged the Big Bullet, Again!
One of my good friends came in to my hospital. room and said that I used another one of my many (nine) lives. I'm not in the hospital, now. I am in my very comfortable home on a lake, hopefully getting better from the recent really scary diagnosis of acute liver failure. Even I was worried. The cancerous

another quick update
I am now back home . My gall bladder has calmed down so the plan is to have it removed in next 10 weeks ( that’s the waiting time ) My biggest concern now is that the CT scan I had on Monday has revealed a 5cm mass in my stomach. I am awaiting a CT biopsy which my haematologist has requested as

Anecdotal, but running could boost immunity

Accuracy of PSMA PET scan?
What would you venture to guess is the accuracy of the PSMA PET scan? How many of you showed "no spread" with your PSMA scan, but then learned via surgery or otherwise that there WAS spread which wasn't detected with the PSMA scan? And, how much better is the new Posluma scan vs Pylarify? My husband

What next after Docetaxel...?
On 4/19/23 I was seen by the trial MO to confirm the previous recommendation of 10 sessions of of Docetaxel after the new liquid biopsy confirmed the first one with no mutations. Meanwhile, the PSA has risen to 115 before a kidney issue and to about 350 just before Chemo. On 12/06/2023, after 9 sessions

Pluvicto Question
Hi Fellow Warriors! Six months of Taxotere failed miserably. After 8 rounds, I was done. After chemo, my second PSMA-PET showed additional bone mets and a spread to the lymph nodes. My MO told me I was a good candidate for Pluvicto, so, three months after finishing Taxotere, I started that therapy
