The Waiting Game/Post 5 weeks of Radiation for Oligomatastic (3 spots) Prostate cancer after 4 years+ of Stage 4. During "Quarantine"
Today was bloodwork and Xtandi and
Xgeva
...first ones after the radiation. Two days from now (Thursday) I have my Zoom visit with the oncologist. The last couple of weeks of radiation brought quite a bit of stomach and intestinal discomfort....nausea, diarrhea, pain and fatigue.

Darolutamide vs Proxalutamide - for a Hail Mary??
This leaves him 'only' on 2mg dexamethasone, Lupron shots (every 3 months) and
Xgeva
shots (monthly), and now, no surprise, a rapidly rising PSA (was 36 yesterday, and was 11.5 4 weeks ago).

Prednisone, 6 month Eligard,

When should the next set of scans be?
He started on firmagon and
xgeva
right away. Then started Abiraterone (zytiga) on 11/1/19. PSA is currently 11 as of 12/24/19 My question is: when should his next scans be and WHAT should they be? (Bone scan? Another PET?) Really appreciate any opinions. Thank you!

Let's talk lytic lesions...
I am currently on Lupron, Zytiga, and
Xgeva
. Each of my subsequent NaF PET scans since 9/17 (chosen because of increased affinity of NaF to lytic lesions) have shown "interval stable" results. Good news as long as it lasts!

Denocumab/Xgeva Jaw/Bone issues.
I have been reading up, (as I always like to do when I’m at all worried, as I feel it is better to know than not to know), about the problems that
Xgeva
/Denosumab can cause with bones and in particular, jaw bones. Do any of you have knowledge or a scientific/medical interest in this issue?

Results of DEXA scan in anticipation of December 12 MO visit. Impression: Bone Density within normal limits. Any reason to add Xgeva?
I have previously reported that my MO has been advocating for adding
Xgeva
to my treatment. The forum helped me process the wisdom of testing for indications it had value for me. I am not anxious to add new Side Effect possibilities.

Xgeva shot
Well I had to have a root canal and now I have to be without my
Xgeva
shot for 3 months at least. Can anyone tell me if they have been off the shot and if so for how long and any problems you had from not taking it?

Question on Rising Blood Pressure?
Hi ladies: Since May 2019 I’ve been on IBrance/Faslodex/
Xgeva
and my blood pressure is much higher. Almost always above 140/90. Typically, in the 150’s over 95 to 100. Has that happened to anyone else? I already had hypertension level 1 before I started taking the MBC treatment.

Faslodex side effects
Hi has anyone on Faslodex Verzinio and
xgeva
had numbness tingling and pain in their back on one side? I have that and it is extremely uncomfortable even to the touch. Trying to get doctors to figure out what it is and not getting any real answers. My thought now is maybe it’s the Faslodex.

Xgeva dosage regimen?
Is anyone else taking
Xgeva
on a other than a 4 week treatment cycle? Has anyone experienced side effects from
Xgeva
, and was it significant enough that you had to stop taking it?
