Hi all, my Dad is currently doing a trial, Peace 111, xtandi & radium 223 with zometa. He is loosing weight, not alarmingly fast but at the point now where he needs to start putting some back on and also muscle mass. I was thinking swimming might be good as it's low impact. He had spot radiation to his

DepoProvera for Lupron SEs--many questions
On my MO's recommendation, I've started DepoProvera [DP] injections to combat serious sleep deprivation and other side-effects of Lupron/Zytiga. So far, I've had 3 shots, roughly a month apart. It really helps! But I'm concerned about using this drug, and my MO is basically ignoring my questions about

Slight PSA Rise
Well, here we go again. On Xtandi and Lupron and Zometa. Feb PSA at .31 May PSA at .29 Aug PSA at .21 Sep PSA at .27 Next test in Nov. Hopefully just noise or random fluctuation. Nov will give more of an idea. At least we know what to watch for. And have some plans ready to consider.

Sleep problems on Xtandi
Hi all, I'm wondering has anyone experienced sleep problems on Xtandi? My Father takes it at 10am, he does have fatigue during the day which is increasing and is experiencing some weakness in his right leg. But awake almost every hour at night. I'm wondering if he took it at night would it make a difference
