Stopping Abi?
I meet with my MO Thursday. We will likely discuss coming off Abiraterone, as my 2 year anniversary is upcoming. Probably continue on Eligard for another year, following stampede trial. PSA reached undetectable early in my treatment and remains undetectable. SE. aren’t fun, but manageable. Don’t

MO recommendations at Mayo, Moffitt?
Hello - After 7 months of ADT (Lupron/abi) my MOs are not offering anything but continuation until my PSA fails, so I'd like to network more; so please let me know whom you think are the best at these two places. Thanks in advance.

PSA rising with Pluvicto
My husband started on Pluvicto. Before first injection PSA was 52, and after a month it is 58. What to expect after second injestion?

Anyone tried cabazitaxel (Jevtana) monotherapy?

Another notice of passing that prompt me to update my profile.
Updating my profile made me remember this quote from a comment on a post a few days ago. I want to share it because I agree, especially with the last paragraph.

What remains?
My husband's PSA count is 3631. He's had every treatment bar Lutetium and immunotherapy and he doesn't have the BRCA gene. Are we at EOL? He, although emaciated, believes that it's not over yet.

First PSA test post radiation and Orgovyx
My husband had his first PSA test today… about a month after 28 proton radiation treatments, and over two months on Orgovyx… Result: <0.10 This seems really good to us! ( last PSA was 46.6 before treatment) Does it sound like a good result to all of you at this stage? Meeting with medical oncology

Break from ADT or not?
Hi everyone, my Dad was recommended 18-24 months of Lupron/Zytiga/Prednisone after Radiation Therapy. We reached that time and MO said that is up to my Dad if he wants to continue the treatment or not. Lately my dad had high blood pressure over 200 and he ended up in ER, but now the blood pressure is

Blood work question
My husband just got round # 4 of chemo yesterday and bloodwork was done the day before. Doctor not concerned with anything on the blood work and did say that it is expected to change with each round of chemo. Everything looked good and hardly any changes but one flag I see was the Red cell distribution

Abiraterone side effect
After 12 doses of abirateron/prednisone I developed a rather severe cough. Even though this is one of the listed side effects of abiraterone my oncologist says that she has never heard of it happening before.

I started posting on this forum 2 years ago but it is many months since I last posted so I wanted to tell you what is proving to be a happy ending to my long RLS tale of woe. I've had RLS all my life (inherited from my father) and for many years it was just an occasional thing but when I got old it
