Should I undergo Triplet therapy?
Was diagnosed with stage-4 prostrate cancer with metastasis to lymph nodes and bones in April 2024. PSA was 400 when diagnosed and it shot up to 700 in a month. Started with Lupron and Nubeqa. PSA has come down to 8 in 2 months. Next PSA test (after 3rd month) is tomorrow. My Oncologist wants to

PSMA scans-any update?
Saw this link this morning. Any update on this research or trials? Kinda describes my situation: after surgery and radiation PSA climbing. PSMA showed metastatic lymph nodes. Rather than watch and wait, they were radiated. PSA now seems to have dropped. Thanks. https://youtu.be/usXbPe_1YYc?si=cZB8L4YZ7y0w7qSJ

stabbing pain inProstate
Good morning to all I have been on Erleada and Degarelix for 15 months without much side effects ( except for hot flashes and tiredness) My PSA last month was 0.13 and my Test was 1.0 Gleason 4+3 Metastatic with diffused bone metastases.

I have been on nubeqa and orgovyx for over six months now. Blood draw this week shows my PSA level at <.10 beginning 30 days of starting those two drugs. My MO suggested I have a regular PET scan.

PSA 1.175 Down from 21, 6 weeks ago. Is this good ?
After 6 weeks only on orgovyx my PSA has dropped to 1.175 from 21 and testosterone to 25 from 400. Are these numbers ok ? I read many here say their testosterone numbers are much lower - in single digits. Hence I am wondering if I should switch to Firmagon and see if they drop more. Do testosterone

Satisfaction with AUS after Radiation
If you have had an AUS implanted after receiving radiation are you satisfied with your decision and has it improved your quality of life? Or do you regret having an AUS implanted and if so why? I have had both a prostatectomy and salvage radiation (see profile). I regained continence after the prostatectomy

prostate cancer that does not produce psa
Hi everyone. My dad’s PSA has always been low, so when he was diagnosed, we were very shocked. His team checks his PSA, although PSMA have been more telling for him. His PSA today is the highest it has ever been at 17. His last PSMA was better than the one before. Is it possible for prostate cancer

rising PSA
My PSA started rising after 6 years of being undetectable. July 2023 , PSA 0.10 and July 2024 PSA 0.70 . I had a PSMA pet scan when my PSA hit 0.30 in November 2023 , scan did not show any cancer. I have another PSA test scheduled for early October; my doctor wants to wait until my PSA hits 1 before

Zanda after Zytiga
Orgovyx and Zytiga brought my Gleason 9 cancer to a PSA of 0.67, but after 5 months my PSA has slowly risen to 1.59. Would it help to switch from Zytiga to Zanda? Poollover

Second Line Hormonal
I am still only receiving Zoladex injections every three months. I did try Abiraterone 2022/2023 and it failed after a few months. I have been trying to get my Oncologist to prescribe Enzalutamide. I have been treated with docetaxel again and thought it might re-sensitize me for another hormonal drug

IMRT WITHOUT THE JELL
I'm scheduled for IMRT Radistion without the jell. Doc says the jell may push cancer microscopic cells away from the prostate. He said the cancer is about to protrude through the capsule and microsopic cancer cells could be out of the capsule and did not want to take a chance of putting the jell in and

Curious about Prednisone dosage.
Warriors If you do not mind telling me, I am curious about how many of you on Zytiga/Abiraterone take a 5 mg dosage of Prednisone , and how many take some other dosage level. I know most of your also getting Lupron injections and some are taking other medications along with the Zytiga/Abiraterone
