Zytiga Failed Me Bigtime
After the Erleada started to fail I did 3 months of
Xofigo
, followed by 3-1/2 of Zytiga. Zytiga was supposed to be the answer to the PSA, but it went from 33 to 120 while taking it. Not to mention I've felt like shit for the past two months. So as if today the MO is starting me on Docetaxel.

Rising PSA after Hormone Resistance
He had done Provenge and is half way thru
Xofigo
infusions. They said PSA really can’t tell us anything now, but they still test it. It has gone from 11.27 in June to 60 this week. And now suddenly his oncologist wants to see him. My question: Does PSA mean anything at this point?

Another PSMA scan Question...
We quit the
Xofigo
and radiation treatments acct scans showed new mets that didn't show on PSMA scan. Did former treatments actually resolve old mets?? Are new ones maybe treatable by the old treatments if we go back to them?? Or do the old mets not exhibit PSMA ??

So Much for Zytiga
Began Zytiga July 1st after my MO took me off Erleada and
Xofigo
( only three months on the
Xofigo
). The First PSA showed a drop from my previous number of 33 on June 9th, to 24 on July 29th. Awesome, finally one of these drugs is trending my PSA down instead of up.

XOFIGO
Upon my urging my doctor do something, he finally decided on
Xofigo
. When I asked him my years left given my stage four going on three years he said without hesitating; "the average is two years". My wife started sobbing.

Lupron causing pain?
Plus, since I started Zytiga on July 1st, the pain is worse now than it ever was on the previous medications, Erlearda first, and only 3 months of
Xofigo
. Getting quite frustrated.

SHOULD I ZIG OR SHOULD I ZAG?
Then I meet with a doctor about
Xofigo
down the street. at Comprehensive Cancer Centers of Nevada On Monday, I meet with a doctor in SLC Utah Cancer Specialists about LU 177 aka Pluvicto. Not sure if the two doctors will advocate which direction is best for me. What to do?

Unusual side effect
I have recently started Xtandi, Xgeva, and
Xofigo
within a week of eachother. I am experiencing an unusual issue and am trying to decide if one of the medications might be responsible for it. My left leg is drawing up, contracting with the quad muscles, with a slight draw across the body.

Advanced PC with a 90 years old
Other options like Pluvicto or
Xofigo
or Jevtana seems to be too much for him to handle. Thank you in advance for your inputs.

Pivot. And pivot again. Scheduled for Pluvicto on 8/25 at Banner Gateway in Gilbert, AZ
We've been going back and forth between treatment decisions wanting Pluvicto and starting
Xofigo
. Our MO fought hard for Pluvicto. After peer to peer review with insurance and the availability of it being an issue he was finally able to get us scheduled.

Xofigo failing or not.....
Well, my PSA is rising at a much slower rate, up only 16% this month after 288% rise last month. New scans after three Ra-223 treatments and my one rib met is now 4 mets, sitz bone and first rib stable. Left sacro/central iliac is showing now also. All mets are showing less intense uptake, but still

Back to plan B - No longer chasing Lu177
Our MO's concern is being able to receive Lu177 after
Xofigo
. There seems to be uncertainty with how long you need to wait between those 2 treatments. He thought it would be a year. If at all. There's still Jevtana that we haven't tried. Our MO would rather save that for use after
Xofigo
.

My life has gotten much more complicated since Abiraterone suddenly quit working about 6 months ago
I just had the 4th of 6
Xofigo
(Radium-223) injections last Wednesday. I feel like the pain from bone metastases is improving. I have also undergone 15 External Beam Radiation Therapy EBRT treatments during the same period.
