My PSA tripled in 8 months
I had my RP in Jan 31, 2023, started hormonal therapy from April 17 with Diphereline every 28 days plus one Casodex daily. My PSA went down to 0.005 from May to November. Yesterday I had my blood test again and the report indicated my PSA has jumped to 0.159. I am panic. Can you explain what does

Just joined the club no one wants to be a member of in April 2023 - can Gleason 9 be cured ?
Doc says that our goal is a cure despite the fact that I am a Gleason 9 with Decipher score of 1 , the highest for metatastic spread. (PSMA PET was negative.) The highest my PSA has ever been was 5.48 in December 2022 and it dropped to .09 with Testosterone of 14 in August two months after a shot of

Coming off DMTS
Good morning Everyone! My Neuro has been talking to me about coming off my DMT (Avonex) I'm 63 and studies show that efficacy /new flares lessen as you get older. I have been on Avonex for 12 years. I know a lot of older folks are coming off their DMTs - does anyone have stories? Also, my doctor

My story of my 23 year battle with Pca.
I have decided to share this with the group because yesterday a guy shared his fear. In no way should you take any of this as a suggestion for treatment or refusal of treatment. I was diagnosed with Pca Gleason 3+3 July 13 2000 ar the age of 49. When the Dr. gave me the results I started sweating profusely

Now my cancer is now under control, my wife no longer wants to be with me.
I was diagnosed with stage IV prostate cancer, bladder and pelvis in late 2019. I went straight on Casodex and 2 years of Eligard shots. 9 rounds of Docetaxel, kidney stents and VMAT radiation therapy. Following my last PET scan, no new growth was evident and my PSA has been under 1.0 for the last

Little Update
Hi all - latest CT scan showed organs were clear which is good. My mets though have increased in size and there is also a new one. 3 in total that are seen. 2 on L5, 1 on pubic bone I think it is called. Doctor thought that isn't too surprising as I am only about 40days into treatment. Did Casodex

11 days after 1st Lupron jab-no side effects
It's been 11 days since my first Lupron jab, (1-month dosage) and I am not feeling a single side effect. Not only that, I didn't feel the injection in my hip, nor any soreness afterwards. Nothing. No Casodex. No flare. When I went for the jab my PSA was 10.6 and my T-level was 354. I'm wondering if

What’s the pros and cons of Casodex and Lupron as the only treatment for Gleason 4+5 (9).
I was diagnosed with PC, March 2022. Gleason 4+5 (9). Urologist wanted to do a radical prostatectomy. I chose to change my diet, exercise and lifestyle to a plant-based detox from chemicals in my food and in my house. My PSA went from 13.7 to 100 in one year. It metastasized to my pelvic area and seminal
