Darolutamide 1200mg/day?
Lately my MO has put me on 1200mg a day of Nubeqa or Darolutamide with 3 monthly Zoladex injection. My PSA was 6.4 & was reduced to 2.4 in 5 weeks. So that is good, but my question is, has anyone here been on that amount of Darolutamide a day? & What is it doing to the heart? not to mention liver

mCRPC end of ADT--staying the course.
My dad saw his oncologist yesterday. My sister and I were there; we both read “Being Mortal” and watched several videos on the subject. The MO brought in the PSA test and said it was time to start considering a treatment change and the next steps were chemo and there was also Pluvicto. What happened

My 80 year-old dad with MPCa, broke his leg and now seems to be giving up. Advice on best anti-anxiety meds desperately needed.
Dear PC family As you will see from my profile my dad in England has been on his prostate cancer journey for five years. He was doing well until March, still actively farming though fatigued, and was due to start Radium 223 in April. Sadly, he broke his leg on March 12 in a fall, was put in a full-leg

In 2019 after a prolonged bout of diarrhea a blood test was ordered, the cause of the diarrhea was not discovered but the test indicated bone cancer. From there tests showed extensive bone mets and grade 9 Gleason APC. Chemotherapy radiation and firmagon followed. My psa went way down for about 18 months

Earlier this year A-Z ended the trial and applied for FDA approval of the combo, it does seem to help some of us. I learned that I had been taking the placebo, not the
