Boron
Anyone know if boron and strontium citrate are okay to take together? Perhaps only one is better than the other. I have mild osteoporosis but am trying to aid a lumbar bone graft fusion from surgery 3 months ago. I take d3, k2, strontium citrate and biotin. I also am on Gabapentin for nerve pain. I

I am apprehensive to write this - but HOLY COW!
Hello guys n girls- I am a reader, not a poster on this site but -……. My 3 month appointment w my oncologist was yesterday. I was very apprehensive since my PSA has been doubling every 2-3 months for the past year. Still low at 1 but it was at .02 for a couple years. So I assumed that Zytiga had failed

***Six months scans are back ***
Good morning my Brother, I got my six month scans back and all in all I'm very pleased with the results. CT scan shows no progression to any vital organs, or soft tissue. There has been no change from last scan six months ago. Bone scan shows very slight uptake to one met ,all other mets are stable

XGEVA , Dosing change?
Question. I've been receiving Xgeva injections every 4 weeks for about two years now. My MO says we're going to reduce that to every 3 months. I didn't get a clear explanation as to why. Any thoughts? Also I began Eligard every 4 months with daily Zytiga 1000 mg and prednisone 5 mg x2 daily in June

Post Brachytherapy PSA
I'm thinking this is quite good news. Jim had HDR Brachytherapy last October. Unable to do pelvic radiation nor any lymph nodes nor his suspicious bone spot. He is considered Oligometastatic. Despite limited RT, after six months of PSA <0.04, this month he is down to <0.02. He of course still on

Spinal fusion question
Hi. My adult daughter anterior had L5/S1 spinal fusion surgery with instrumentation 3 months ago for excruciating and longstanding pain from a prolapsed disc.

Intermittent secondary ADT
I'm currently taking Xtandi while waiting to start a CAR-T trial. Due to the way scheduling is working out, I'm starting and stopping Xtandi three times. It occurs to me that this might have a benefit similar to Bipolar Androgen Therapy, where it might delay resistance to Xtandi and kill more of the

A decision to be made....

Abiraterone-Related Hypokalemia
New paper - anecdotal case. [1] Abiraterone-related hypokalemia is presumably rare. However, it's probably a good idea to keep an eye on potassium levels. "Hypokalemia is a low level of potassium (K+) in the blood serum. Mild low potassium does not typically cause symptoms. Symptoms may include feeling

CMP results :-(
AST= 114- normal range= 15-37 ALT = 107- NR =16-61 Globulin =2.5 - NR = 2.8- 4.4 Looks like liver damage is indicated, all was going so well... MO suggests stopping Zytiga for 2 weeks and then retest CMP . Somehow this was posted on the other Prostate Cancer board in error

Latest PSA update
The latest PSA measurement from me shows a nearly 50% decline - which is great news. The decline is marginally greater than the previous period - which is interesting. The only things I have changed is dropping from 160mg/day to 120mg/day Xtandi, and reducing the volume of my food intake (same diet)

CT Results are In
Looking for your wisdom, good people. What does “Spleen: Small splenule” mean? I read about the need for a sulfur colloid scan to determine if it’s cancer. Nothing else to note on the CT scan. PSA is 5.12, up from 4.32 on 4/8, up from 1.6 on 12/10. Bone scan shows no evidence of metastasis. Thank You

Orchiectomy or ADT
I'm 80 years old with ED since my prostatectomy. Both surgery an radiation have failed to cure my PC so, I find myself at a fork in the road. Do I have an Orchiectomy or use ADT medications. from what I have read, Orchiectomy has shown to have better result than ADT in terms of long term survival plus
