At what point for scan ?
Hi. Currently just had # 4 chemo. Live in Canada so PSMA has never been done . Bone scan and CT scan. I'm wondering at what point it would be good to get a scan ( they already said it would probably be a CT scan as that's all we have in my province and eventually another bone scan which He has to fly

Chemo progress
PSA 139 @ DX1-2024 started Orgovyx and Nubeqa dropped PSA to 62.93. Started Chemo 1st infusion..PSA 23.3 2nd infusion..PSA 11.26 3rd infusion.. PSA 7.45 Just got my labs back for the 3rd infusion. Just feel disappointed as I was hoping for a larger drop and seemed to have stalled out. Does it look

CLL itching
I am convinced that my constant itching problem is a direct result of my condition. Itching has increased over the years and now constant . My only relief is alcohol and THC laced Gummies . All other suggestions would be appreciated .

Treatment for low-PSA mHSPCa
Does anyone have a clue for treatment of low-PSA metastatic PCa? For neuroendocrine PCa? The only study I can find on treatment for low-PSA: "Mortality Risk for Docetaxel-Treated, High-Grade Prostate Cancer With Low PSA Levels: A Meta-Analysis | Oncology | JAMA Network Open" | indicates that

PSA vs Testosterone plot has large scatter, but still confirms Morgentaler's Saturation Model.
Here are two plots comparing PSA values to Testosterone levels taken from a pair of large data sets. What is striking is the large amount of scatter in the individual data from both datasets, with factors of 2-6 X deviations from the average (or median) values. The upper plot has N = 255 data points

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
