PSA blip
He’s on
Lupron
-3, Zytiga & Prednisone. He got his blood results back yesterday and his PSA blipped a bit by 0.5 ; from 5.6 to 6.1. Is that a normal occurrence this early in his journey? He was dx back in July 2021.

Rising PSA and want to be the best advocate!
Kwon at Mayo since 2014, with monthly
Lupron
injections, and C-11 choline PET scans and endorectal MRI's. In 2014 scans showed the cancer was around the urethra and a possible groin lymph node. His options were
Lupron
or trying cryotherapy for the urethra and surgical excision of lymph nodes.

My turn for advice
Had external beam radiation and brachytherapy with 2 years
lupron
. PSA was undectable during this time. 6 months after stopping
lupron
the PSA went to 0.8. Now 6 months later it is 3.8. Got PET PSMA results back today with spread to lymph nodes in groin.

Embr Wave 2 & Hotflashes
Hot flashes have been a big problem for me ever since I started
Lupron
.
Lupron
stopped working for me and I am now Apalutamide and still have hot flashes. I am on Gabapentin & Venlafaxine that seem to help somewhat with the flashes. I ordered a Embr Wave 2 and am very happy with it.

Zoladex VS Lupron
Has anyone switched from Zoladex to
Lupron
? And what side effects do you have from the
Lupron
? My Dr. Just called and said my insurance company is no longer covering Zoladex so they are switching me to
Lupron
. TIA

Good imho - a little no frill
Either I am not a candidate for advanced treatments beyond
Lupron
and Xtandi or they just don’t “go there”. I’m a 5-year since diagnosis Gleason 9 with multiple lymph node involvement, one near the heart. I had chemo in a German clinic without involvement with the military.

First time on this forum, hoping to connect with people with similar experience
I am less worried about the
Lupron
, maybe because I know very little about it. I am trying to find out if I need a second opinion, especially about the treatment, since I think the diagnosis is pretty clear. Still waiting for some imaging results from the CT scan.

What Next???
Started with Zytiga early on and was usually on that along with
Lupron
but not always. Also had a prostatectomy and radiation of left acetablum early on as that's where my largest tumor was located.

PSA slowly going down.
I have been on
lupron
since 3/2017, 3 month injections. They could not give my a reason why this is happened. Any thoughts.

Prostap v Lupron
I notice that many of you mention
Lupron
. Can anyone explain the differences and am I on the best option for ADT? One further question is that I am yet to have my hormone levels checked. When is this appropriate? Thank you.

Marajuiana-CBD Oil
My PSA is .008 after being on
Lupron
since October 2020. What are the benefits to me if I start taking CBD Oil please? Or is there a time after my PSA increases to start taking it? I keep my profile up to date.

Northern Ohio Medicare question
Like many, I’m on the Zytiga, prednisone and
lupron
train. Just curious if there are others from my neck of the woods that have navigated this path recently? Thank you all in advance for your consideration!

Results for the last three tests (most recently 4th Jan) have been exactly PSA 0.02 T 0.5 TSH 1.8-2.2 I continue on
Lupron
30mg q4 months and Erleada 240mg daily. I will be seeing my MO on the 10th Jan and so far other than the overall fatigue and some joint pain, the side effects feel minimal.

Encouraging results after two months on ADT
Lupron
shot and started Zytiga November 17. PSA mid-December dropped to 0.47, and I've been feeling really good. Intermittent sciatica, but no pain many days. Eating healthy, physical therapy, and exercise at home. PSA on January 3rd at primary care for annual physical was 0.32.

Energy Boost
I meet with my oncologist tomorrow for quarterly appointment and another dose of
lupron
and this will be one of my questions for him. After 40 months at near zero I’ve been more than doubling PSA past 3 quarters. Have to admit I’ve not felt this energetic for quite some time.

Yet another new member...
Currently I am in ADT (
Lupron
, Abiraterone+prednisone) and I believe that my team wants me to engage in Radiation at some point after I am able to control my bladder. Sorry to be here - sorry there's anyone else to be here with.
