Double whammy chemo
Was on firmagon/
Xgeva
, now back to Lupron just to keep the testosterone low - his is under 7. Zytiga did nothing He had 9 sessions of Docetaxel with Dr Tagawa -Weill Cornell- and it was a walk in the park. Only felt good.

Liver scan after finding new growths after cat scan?
Went on Ibrance,
Xgeva
, and faslodex. My cancer markers dropped dramatically. Then, at my June labs, it showed that my cancer markers had nearly doubled. My wbc and neuts were in the toilet. I was taken off all meds and got a cat scan.

Long Overdue Update
He has now had two docetaxel infusions, is still on
Xgeva
, Lupron, Morphine, Norfo. Missed last infusion bc he was in ICU with an intestinal infection- that’s us there in the pic! He is having one more infusion next week, though I wish he wouldn’t. I feel like this last one almost killed him.

ONJ, zometa, xgeva
Hi, I did 2 months of zometa then switched to
xgeva
due to side effects of the zometa. I took
xgeva
for about a year and a half then had a small piece of exposed jaw bone. Oral surgeon said ONJ, onc said no more
xgeva
or any drug in it's class.

Anti-Depressants and Cancer Survival
Hmm, that sounds vaguely like the mechanisms behind Zometa/
Xgeva
+ Celebrex. My takeaway is that if you have cancer and are suffering any level of fatigue and/or depression, seek help!

My cancer markers have been slowly rising for the last 3 months, but this lab showed they've doubled. My wbc counts and neuts are 2 and.8
I've been on faslodex,
xgeva
, and ibrance since November of 2019. Counts were ok until April when my cancer markers started slowly rising. I had a UTI, so oncologist was not too worried. This lab showed that my cancer markers are at 134, nearly doubled. And my WBC count is at 2. Neuts at .8.

Mountains out of molehills?
On Lupron/Zytiga/Prednisone/
Xgeva
since December. PSA dropped from 7.57 in December, and kept dropping to 0.69 in May. Latest reading on June 26 showed slight increase to 0.73. Being a natural borne worrywort, should I be concerned about this rise or am I making mountains out of molehills?

possible treatment change/ markers increasing
I had to stop
xgeva
after a year due to ONJ (last dose 12/2018). Onc had me hold my ibrance/faslodex to draw markers after my week off.

I have doubts from PA that Zytiga is working
SO is on Lupron , Zytiga and
Xgeva
. The Zytiga (1000 MG) with Xygeva were both added 4 months after Lupron.

worried about markers / possible treatment change
Last
xgeva
12/18 due to ONJ (that story is in it's own post). My markers have been inching up from 65 to 71 on the faslodex/ ibrance. PET on 5/4 came back "basically stable" no new lesions, some a little less active some slightly more active.

PSA inching up and a couple of "progressions" on Axumin Pet Scan....hmmm.
I'm on Lupron, Xtandi and
Xgeva
right now. They are bad enough. He said we would keep on the same path....he is ordering a Liquid Biopsy from Foundation One because they said my old biopsy didn't have enough to work with.

***17 Months***
Gordon Brown: My treatment so far have been Zytiga, Prednisone, Eligard,
Xgeva
for bone Mets, and most recently three rounds of Provenge. I have been 0.1 since first month treatment. I was in extreme pain at my first visit which has subsided to nearly nothing.

Flu or meds
I am on Ibrance, Femara and
Xgeva
injection 4 months, stage IV. Just had PET scan and got good report...Mets down over 50%. However since Friday I felt flu-ish...joint pain, nausea then hip pain for2 days. It’s now Wednesday and all joint pain seems gone but slight nausea and cramping continue.

Xgeva shots
He is getting
xgeva
shots once in awhile as They won’t prolong life but may help prevent breakage. Should I try to be more vigilant about getting these shots monthly. It has more to do with our travel schedule that we have missed them! Opinions???

Xgeva???
Worried about starting
Xgeva
...yet another drug with scary possibilities There are some really good bone density increasing, strengthening, calcium algae products out now, what about that instead? Need to decide! 🙏

Scrotum Itch
Started Casodex, Lupron, Zytiga,
Xgeva
, Prednisone. In about a month, developed scrotum itch, which isn't getting better. At first thought it was associated with night sweats. But jock itch ointments and powder are no help.

Shingles shots and PCa meds?
I'm on Lupron/Zytiga/Prednisone and soon on
Xgeva
. Has anyone been aware of any interactions between these meds and the new shingles vaccine? I will see my MO later this month but, as we all know, they don't know everything.
