What’s after Lu-177 in Vancouver, BC?
Hi there, I’m located in Vancouver, BC 🇨🇦. My dad is on a clinical trial and after over a decade with this disease he has failed Zytiga, Xtandi, docetaxel, and is now on his 4/6 Lu-177 infusion. He’s castration-resistant and metastatic. PSA decreased considerably after the first Lu-177 infusion but

Celebrex and Curcumin and Magnesium.
I recently received a question from a fellow warrior based on a comment I had made on an older post that he had started. The question was what I thought about Naproxen compered to Celebrex and I told him I had very limited experience with Naproxen. I then clicked on older posts about nsaids and prostate

Need more info on related symptoms
On the surface, I seem to be doing very well. Per earlier posts: Gleason 5+4, intraductal, possible perinueral spread, PET scan shows spread to lymph nodes only but as distant as the clavicle. Apparently these clavicle lymph nodes show up very pale on the scan and are too small to biopsy. But, treatment

Rising PSA 1 year after RALP
I've been getting ultra sensitive PSA tests every three months. These are the last three scores: 0.015 0.017 0.026 (First PSA test after surgery was <0.1) I am worried. Frightened, actually. Margins were not clear on my surgical biopsy, though gleason was only 3+3. Two biopsies prior

RP + Radiation Question
I received biopsy confirmation of my advanced prostate cancer on Aug 29 and PET in September confirmed node positivity. I'm 43yo. No distant metastasis. I am working with a multidisciplinary team (UO, MO, and RO) with Kaiser in Anaheim, CA. Based on an analysis of the PET, the team believed it was unlikely

PSA Bounce
Hello and happy New year distinguished gentlemen. I was wondering if I may please get your input on my latest PSA which bounced from 1.2 to 1.6. Why did this happen and is this something I should be concerned about? Thanks so much. Regards.

3months Post-HD Brachytherapy
Follow up from my previous post & many thanks to the helpful advice from members here. I scheduled a teleconference with Dr Albert Chang at UCLA in November, scheduling is 3 months out so treatments were Feb.3 and 6. Normally a week apart but since I flew in they did 3days apart. We stayed at the Luskin

When to do certain blood tests and why.
Just coming up on my 6 month anniversary of radiation and my 2 months prior to radiation and 4 months post Lupron while on radiation. So I have been off Lupron for 2 months. I had my annual physical yesterday and my GP had ordered complete blood panel with thyroid and PSA. There were no issues with blood

Radiotherapy for prostate local and retroperitoneal nodes
ADT of lupron and abiraterone has been pretty tolerable so far, almost four months - maybe I got cocky. Started my SBRT 28 fraction 70 Gy radiotherapy four days ago, mild to moderate urinary urgency and some burn started almost immediately. Diarrhea started at night after day four, mild so far. How

Another miracle cure :)
Any opinions on sodium chloro acetate. I am anxious to try an herbicide on my cancer :) but seriously if you google a bit there is some sense to the explanations as to how it might help to reduce cancer. Anyone try this

Dutasteride and PSA dropping
I started taking dustasteride about 1 month ago because of high DHT and my PSA dropped from 10 to 5.5. I've read that you are supposed to double the PSA to get an "equivalent" non-dutasteride level of 11. Does anyone understand why we are supposed to double the PSA value when taking dutasteride?

PSMA scan
I spoke with RO and we are going to radiate the autocaval lymph node lit up per the above scan. My PSA was .027. I hope this knocks it out. I am also contemplating ADT but unsure which would work first or second generation.

Today was a good day
My husband had his PSMA scan today and it was negative for mets!! I am so relieved! He also had his PSA tested today and no change since December. I feel like I can breathe for a moment. We also met with the radiation oncologist this morning to discuss brachytherapy boost and it was a very positive meeting
