another undetectable
PSA in again at undetectable which I am assuming means my testosterone is not recovering . No T result yet but 0.5 last month! Still on Apalutamide as a monotherapy but coming off that too is bouncing around my head. Would love to go med free, still watching all developments and still no idea of the

Prostate cancer radiotherapy side effects.
I’m a seventy seven year old who had a radical prostatectomy eight years ago. Following one of my regular PSA tests the result showed, after scans in September 2023, a return in the prostate bed and adjacent lymph nodes. Began hormone implants straight away followed by twenty doses of targeted radiotherapy

PSA trippled since last Lupron infusion
My PSA was 0.05 between February 2023 and June 2023, then in September it ticked higher to 0.06 and at yesterday's Lupron injection it was 0.17. Should I be concerned? Anybody with similar experience: what did you do? Am I CR or still CS? Should I ask for Lu-177/Pluvicto ASAP? Thanks for reading.

Update on Prostate Cancer Vaccines that I follow... another year is gone...
Greetings FPC forum, It has been another year... and I would love to have better news... there is a new vaccine candidate to monitor, but the reality is that the system takes time... The system needs a revision in my opinion, but I digress... As I reviewed the last time, the vaccine trial for RhoVac's
