Trying to avoid feeling that I am on a downward slope
She had resisted registering while ever I was on
Zytiga
, on which I had been placed on repatriating to the UK in 2017, as I had generally coped with it well -- apart from a little confusion.

Xtandi side effects
Following failure of
Zytiga
after 3+ years I have just started taking Xtandi. I'm having some issues with the side effects or what I presume are side effects and wondered how you guys have dealt with them. Mostly extreme weakness in my legs to the point of struggling to get up out of a chair.

Is Simvastatin more effective than the other statins, against PCa?
Patrick O'Shea and others interesting in the effects of statins on prostate cancer suppression, do you find anything about this study that reinforces the use of Simvastatin over other statins, or is it insignificant because it's not a study on men? I didn't try to translate the amount/dosage in this

Starting Docetaxel when D-dimmer is high
Dear all, My father failed
Zytiga
and is scheduled to get first round of Docetaxel chemo. Unfortunately the doctors mentioned that he should start taking chemo when his d-dimmer test fails below 250. Currently it is 1500.

Advanced PC with a 90 years old
For example, if he becomes castration resistant with Enzalutamide, can he get Apalutamide or Darolutamide or
Zytiga
? Other options like Pluvicto or Xofigo or Jevtana seems to be too much for him to handle. Thank you in advance for your inputs.

Fluctuate PSA
Does anyone else have a psa that fluctuates in the .20, .30, .40s while on
Zytiga
. Is it common to have some PsA when you still have your prostate?

Jevtana stopped working. Considering Nubeqa
Psa started to rise and started
zytiga
, which souped working in 3 months. Started Xtandi, which didn't work at all. Started Jevtana in March. Worked for 5 treatments. PSA down to .89. Next tx psa rose to 1.22. Next tx rose to 1.32. Oncologist ordered a bone scan and we discussed Nubeqa.

Tired of education and self advocacy
At my next meeting I will have Been on Lupron/
zytiga
+p for a year. I may show up wanting an Orchidectomy. I may challenge his Lupron Forever/no vacations approach. Again! I may even go back to advocating for some kind of more aggressive approach. I've got a couple months to prep myself. Again.

Surgical Option . Each option has no guarantees
I resumed treatment with Lupron and told my oncologist in Clearwater Fl that I wanted to go with Lupron and
Zytiga
( learned about this from heathunlocked). My PSA went from 77 in November 2017 to being undetectable . It has remained so as of my last test aug 2022.

waiting
(Oh yea, I had been on
Zytiga
back in August last year. I was also put on monthly injection of XGEVA then.) When I got my June injection of Xgeva, got PSA as well,and it upped to 15.5. Also pain was getting much worse. We stopped
Zytiga
, and started on Xtandi. Also ordered PSMA PET scan.

Lynparza (Olaparib) gives 34% advantage with Zytiga for radiographic progression, vs Zytiga alone. For those who are Newly Hormone Resistant
https://firstwordpharma.com/story/5637759 Maybe not just for Men with Gene Mutations (like BRCA 1/2, or ATM).

RP is scheduled for the end of this month, and have been on Firmagon and
Zytiga

Chemotherapy or Zytiga or both? Metastatic or Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer?
Started on ADT/Orgovyx and Abiraterone/
Zytiga
plus prednisone, with plan to shrink tumor and do radiation. Got second opinion at Mayo that recommended adding chemotherapy due to aggressiveness and also family history that suggests a genetic component (still waiting on testing).
