Xtandi starting meds
My husband Mike has recently started on this medication, he had a problem with Bicalutimide so the Onco decided that an initial dose of just 2 capsules daily for 3 weeks would be a good idea. After 3 weeks at the follow up review it was suggested he go up to 3 a day. Since then he has had indigestion

American Horror Story
Chuck went on to fail Zytiga,
Xtandi
, Xofigo and chemo within 13 months...his body lights up like a Christmas tree on Pet Scans with a PSA of 6300. Chuck is now in hospice on a morphine drip. The moral of the story..live with PCa and keep it on a short leash as long as possible. Gus

Cycling T and ADT?
If Cycling T and ADT would work by preventing CRPC why wouldn't doing 3 month on/off cycles of Casodex or
Xtandi
work...would the AR receptors mutate over time...but one fact is for sure ...anything beats continuous ADT with all its side effects the worse being CRPC and a long painful death.

Extra Xtandi
Folks unfortunately
Xtandi
never worked for me. I have a full sealed prescription pack, which cost me $200, insurance paid most of it, plus 1/4 opened pack which I can pass on. If interested send me an email, including my cost and shipping and its yours. Thanks

Foods/Supplements-Vitamins: Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)
Further, [2] reports synergy with Casodex, so it might work well with
Xtandi
. {As with almost all natural products, there have been no PCa clinical trials.}

Startup develops late-stage prostate cancer therapy that could increase patient survival rates
Examination of the Wiki-pages for Zytiga &
Xtandi
informs one that the drugs are used to treat metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. i.e. first we close the largest barn door, then we move on to the next & so on. Dr.

Elgie Xtandi/ Insomnia
So he is going back down to 2 pills of
Xtandi
a day to see if this helps him to be able to sleep and also to see if it stops some of the side effects. This is no quality of life :-( Jackie

Xtandi rough journy
Wow
Xtandi
is kicking my butt, It has a side effect of tearing down the muscular skeletal system of the body, for instance I have now developed a condition called costochondritis this is a strain of the ligaments in my chest, it has now been three weeks of severe pain in my chest, and just a great feeling

Elgie/Memorial Sloan-Kettering/Radiotherapy /Xtandi Side Effects
He is in a fog or a haze and he said that he feels like he's crawling out of his skin since starting the 3rd pill
Xtandi
. Dr. Myers did not feel that
Xtandi
causes insomnia.... although I have heard otherwise from others and on our site.

THE LAST LEG OF THE JOURNEY: Hospice Care
My medonc (medical oncologist) had suggested stopping the
Xtandi
and remaining on palliative care, but it was plain to see that the
Xtandi
had stopped being effective after 25 months.

Xtandi side effects
I have been on
Xtandi
for metastic prostate cancer for the last 3 months. I am part of the Phase 3 trial and I am only on
Xtandi
. The first month was a breeze, now two months later I have aged 10 years. Worst is the memory problem and I can't get answers as to whether this will get worse.
