Can Nubeqa (Darolutamide) be used instead of normal ADT drugs for localized PCa?
Hi all. Australia has just given the green light to lower the cost of this so-called wonder drug from a staggering $40K (AUD) to a low $30. It seems that this drug has fewer side effects than the usual ADT drugs and from what I can gather does a pretty good job of preventing the growth and spread

feeling worse after starting NDT
I’ve just started ERFA thyroid 7 days ago. 30 mg. It’s my first foray into medication. I have known conversion issues hence one of the reasons why me wanting to start straight off with T4/T3 combination therapy. Although my core. It’s temperature has increased and the tinging and pins and needles

QOL gone
Prostatectomy followed 8 months later with ADT and radiation. Mostly incontinent since. Always had overactive bladder before cancer. Urologist did cystoscope and said everything looked normal. Its been > 2 weeks and I am in constant misery. Bladder hurts and have strong feeling of needing to urinate

Leg Pain - 4th Week on Lupron
Hi Friends, I'm on 4th week of ADT (Lupron+Abiraterone). Yesterday I started feeling right upper leg pain in the quads area. I'm not sure whether it's bone or muscle pain. But it's getting worse. I can barely walk. At first I was thinking may be I strained it. But I didn't do anything different than

PSMA PET Scan - Help Interpreting Report?
Hello, My husband had his first PSMA PET scan done today, and I am hoping someone who understands PSMA PET reports can help us interpret/understand the results as well as what to expect or ask for in terms of any further testing and/or treatment? My profile is updated with his history, but in a nutshell

PSMA Results
I’m five years Post surgery including removal of prostate & lymph nodes. Gleason 8 with Intraductal.

Docataxel
My MO is advising Chemotherapy since I am Mcrp. . The MO said that no Adt will work . I have been reading that most people take Adt along with Docataxcel. I would love to prolong my life. I have concerns about QOL and what are the percentages of this treatment working with and without ADT? Thank

Proton treatment - fatigue?
Partner is 66 and has Gleason 7=4+3. He began ADT 4 months ago, with 1 month Lupron shot, then Orgovyx. Other than having some ADT mild fatigue, generally later getting up in the morning, sleepiness around 3 pm, and going to bed a bit earlier, things have pretty much been the same. No hot flashes

Treatment Update IMRT with ADT 18 months later
Follow up 18 months later. I am due for another ADT injection in December. Spoke to the Urologist and he feels 18months is enough keeping with the European standard while the Oncologist would like me to stay the course and do the full 2 years. I am in favor of 18 months also, that would be nice. Still

Low hemoglobin, and foot neuropathy common with ADT?
I was on Lupon for six months, three years ago and experienced feet going numb mostly at night and low hemoglobin. Those issues subsided once stopping Lupron for a few months. These symptoms became more acute during the last two years on Orgovyx with hemoglobin dropping to 9. ( I also had four

Vacation from Lupron/Zytiga - Temporary or Permanent!
I have been on ADT (Lupron/Zytiga) for 2.5 years. PSA and testosterone immeasurable currently. Looking to go on "vacation" from meds. History: Gleason 8/9 with a PSA of only 1.89 (on Finasteride). CT/Bone scan did not show any definite metastasis. PSMA PET showed "possible" metastasis in 4 spots

Starting Abiraterone and predniSONE
Tomorrow morning I take my first dose of Abiraterone (Zytiga) and predniSONE for metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer. I don't know what kind of side effects I would get. I hope I would tolerate the treatment well. Reaching this stage of my cancer I reflect on my 12 year journey with prostate

Orgyvux(relugolix) and Zytiga(abiraterone)
I have a question from one of my support group members. They are currently on Orgyvux. Doc wants to add Zytiga to their treatment. Will the ADT side effects be the same with the addition of Zytiga, or will they become worse? Seems like the side effects would be worse, if T is driven to a lower level
