DOES MEDICARE COVER DEXA SCANS FOR MEN WITH PROSTATE CANCER
I have been on
Casodex
and Eligard since June 2022. My PSA was still high after RALP so I had a GA-68 PSMA PET Scan done which revealed one 11mm tumor in the Left pelvic Lymph Nodes and one 7mm Tumor in the Right pelvic Lymph Nodes. Those were the only 2 hot spots in my body.

Treatment Options for Gynecomastia
I have also been on
Casodex
for the last one month, which made the problem worse. What are treatment options for gynecomastia. My oncologist mentioned surgery. Would that be a temporary solution because I need to continue taking Lupron?

Orgavyx vs Lupron/Casodex
I've done Lupron/
Casodex
before and the cost is very reasonable. In fact, I've already reached my yearly out-of-pocket ins. max and assuming my early Dec. PSA continues upward, if I do the usual at the doctor's office, my cost will be ZERO. Still, Dr. Lam is recommending Orgavyx.

T and PSA basically undetectable. Is adding testosterone or having a colonoscopy 3 years post treatment a good or bad idea for the elderly?
Treatment initially
casodex
followed by one session high dose brachy, 25 sessions IMRT and 18 months Lupron. Currently PSA undetectable and T still <2.5. Pushing through a regular exercise routine but have no energy whatsoever.

what options after Zytiga
After almost 10 years after prostate removal, followed by radiation, Lupron,
Casodex
, Lupron again, radiation again, Lupron + Zytiga... I am with 3 mets at the ribs, spine and iliac... and the the Zytiga is not being effective as my psa keeps climbing and the mets growing in size.

Tapeworm medication
I was placed on
Casodex
, and now it was suggested I take tapeworm medication along with
Casodex
. That seemed too odd, so I have not started that yet. Has anyone in this community heard of that medication used in our defense with Prostate Cancer.

SOC options have run out, PSMA negative, declining health - what's next?
- In July 2021 we switched oncologists because he was only being treated with lupron and
casodex
and we felt the treatment wasn't aggressive enough. He was switched from casaodex to enzalutamide. -Feb. 2022, he had spine surgery to address a met that had escaped the vertebrae.

Update w/ Questions: Tumor growth w/o PSA rise; Chemo Round 2, Cabazitaxel This Time
My psa stayed slow growing for awhile, kept down by 10 months of
casodex
before growing. I started Zytiga last November, which showed promise for a couple months before my psa started rising, still slowly. Then it all went to hell.

ELEVATED LABS AFTER SURGERY
I was diagnosed with MBC in the liver in March of 2019 and have been on Faslodex only since that time with stable scans and lab work. I fell 10/1 and fractured my femur near the hip. On 10/2 I had a partial left hip replacement. I missed my October oncology appointment and Faslodex shots. I saw the doctor

Affinitor and Faslodex aches and side effects! Wow! 😳
My bones 🦴 and muscles 💪🏽 are giving me some serious pain and discomfort under Affinitor and Faslodex! My labs came back a bit wacky! The fluctuations are disturbing but onc says to expect that ….. (still leaves you with concerns). But remember glass is half full 🥃 (wow wish I could have that it

Mucousitis or Chemo Mouth! Ugh!
Yep, got it! Sorry but I feel like 💩! Started Affinitor a little over a week ago along with Faslodex and woke up two days ago with the worst tongue and cheek (haha) pain ever. Swelling. A lesion! I feel as if little knives are cutting inside my mouth. Difficult to talk or eat. As anxious as I get I
