what to expect
Is the loss of energy and weakness due to the chemotherapy or to the
ADT
? How long will it take to begin to recover from the side effects of chemotherapy? Am I going to remain at this level of energy or will I begin to get that back? When make that happen?

Hormonal therapy ?
Hi, I was diagnosed with extended DCIS with ER+, PR+.I had a total mastectomy with a diep flap 2 weeks ago, My surgeon referred me to medical oncology for hormonal therapy. I am curious do I still need hormonal therapy as I already had a mastectomy, as far as cancer recurrence and preventing cancer

Advice on hormonal treatment?
hi all, 10 days post-lap here. Unfortunately ended up losing my left ovary and tube - had 4 endometriomas on it, 1 of which was 8cm, and this was all adhered to my rectum. So the surgeon said it needed to come out. I’m waiting for a post-op appointment but the consultant said the endo will likely come

New study validates intermittent hormone therapy
PCRI just posted a new video titled 'New study validates intermittent hormone therapy'. So, just search 'PCRI' in YouTube and that video will pop up. Certain individuals on this site feel strongly against curtailing the duration of hormone therapy from the standard 2 to 3 years or even longer. I urge

my first post
Hello there, I’ve been dealing with this since 1/2015. I’ve had brachytherapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, cyber knife, immunotherapy, more chemotherapy, now taking Everolimus and letrozole. I’ve always felt that this was a chronic disease after the medications stopped working onto the next regimen

Allergic reaction to Doxil, my first ever chemo infusion
Hi everyone, Has anyone experienced an allergic reaction to Doxil? Almost three years ago, I was diagnosed with stage 4 MBC. After being on hormone therapy for over two years, mostly IBrance and Letrozole, and then oral chemo for six months, my most recent petscan showed the cancer is still spreading

As most men with PCa are oldER and may be on some form of testosterone-blocking treatment, like
ADT
, odds are they are also struggling with the muscle-wasting and weight issues that comes with both oldER age and loss of T.

How fast should your PSA drop after the first ADT treatment.
My husband has stage 4. It is in his lungs, ribs, shoulder and spine. Plus a lot of the lymph nodes. No pain except when he broke his ribs just lying on his stomach. That is healing without the palliative radiation. How fast should his PSA drop. How will we know if this is working. I know this treatment

When ADT fails, we continue it anyway... why not Zytiga?
We use
ADT
to lower T and get a PSA response and regression of PC (and get symptom relief). Eventually
ADT
"fails" and PSA rises. But
ADT
continues to "succeed" in keeping T low, so we stay on it, since low T continues to be important to our next therapies in limiting PC progression.

Overall, )beyond the testing, 2months of
ADT
and gold marker implants), not a terrible experience. Now, a year later, i would like to report: THE GOOD. my PSA is down to .3 and my T cell count is back to 600. my energy is fine and i am able to live my life to 95% of its normal capacity.
