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.

PSA and Zytiga
Was on Lupron for years then in July PSA jumped to 10 so put on
Zytiga
and predinsone and doctor said PSA no longer matters. Why? My PSA dropped to .4 but it doesn’t matter now, why?

How to interpret PSA results
Since then he has been receiving Lupron,
Zytiga
(but discontinued a couple months in due to liver toxicity) and radiation to the prostate only. The PSA has dropped all the way down to .3 where it has remained over last two tests.

More Radiation for bone pain?
My MO wants to put me on a high dose of Dexamethazone (currently on 5 a day with the
Zytiga
). I am very reluctant to do this but if it helps then I would do so. Waiting to see what the MRI shows. She thinks it is time for another round of Docetaxel.

Need advice before Monday doc appt!
Zytiga
was added halfway through chemo. Last PSA was in the 3’s. He is now going for his sixth chemo and had MRI, CT and bone scans on Friday. One brain lesion is what they call punctate (a dot). The other is half its old size. Of three bone lesions, only one in his pelvis is still visible.

Opinion?
Zytiga
and radiation to clean up prostate and bone. Second meeting with Onc in a few weeks Is this too cautious?.

Antidepressants and ED
Lupron and
Zytiga
. We all know the sexual health problems with that. I was getting depressed quite badly at times so I started Citalopram a few days ago. It's already helping but I have noticed a bit more ED. Maybe I have to give it some time to see.

I am Thankful for
Thanks to a great medical team, the powerful drug
Zytiga
and the even more powerful leap of Faith, I believe I am here today, 8 years and counting many more years, into a lasting Remission. I believe in Miracles and that’s what I call myself.

Staph Infections Rifampin
Has anyone had to use rifampin while on
Zytiga
? Jim has been having recurrent skin staph infections. His PCP is considering rifampin, but UCSF says he'll have to double his
Zytiga
& prednisone dosage for a month and get two week metabolic panel bloodwork.

More on abiraterone prices
My basic question is: Have some of you stopped buying abiraterone (generic
Zytiga
) through your Medicare Part D insurance provider and started buying abiraterone through one of the organizations like Good Rx or Cost Plus (Mark Cuban Co.)? Here, for example, is my situation.

OK, a little good news , what is next?
I was getting myself geared up for xtandi or
zytiga
on top of ADT but now I feel i may not need it and maybe should stay the course? No pain just hot flashes and feeling ok and exercise daily. I want to be proactive!! I think this site is the best broad form of info out there!!

Provenge
The plane bringing my 'enhanced' cells back from Georgia yesterday was delayed an hour and a half, so the wait kind of messed up the afternoon, but if this treatment works like they say it will, i'll have a few extra months' worth of afternoons later on to make up for it. looks like

Lu-177 waiting for treatment...
He is stable on
Zytiga
and prednisone at the moment and feels comfortable with us sending labs from Mexico . We don't want to lose our place on the list here in Phoenix but am wondering if anyone has been getting Lu-177 through the VA in San Diego.

No longer free Zytiga
I have been getting my
Zytiga
free from Johnson and Johnson. It is no longer going to be provided for free from Johnson and Johnson. Is there anyone that is getting this drug free from some other source.
