Bone Pain
I have been having significant bone pain in my shoulder that keeps me awake at night. I thought that maybe I was just being a hypochondriac and assuming that every ache or pain was due to "my cancer". Or maybe I fell but forgot about it. Well it has been getting a lot worse and I just had a PSMA scan

Post Transplant psoriatic arthritis treatment
So, here goes! I'm 48 and just "celebrated" 3 years Kidney-versary September 14th! I have PKD and was having a lot of pain and other issues before, so even though I was still around 17% function I was listed for transplant. I was very fortunate though to have a living donor come forward to donate and

Androgen Metabolism and Response in Prostate Cancer Anti-Androgen Therapy Resistance, Int J Mol Sci. 2022 Nov; 23(21): 13521
This is by far the best overview paper I have seen on the topic of AR metabolism and the nature of treatment resistance for mainstream SOC drugs currently in use. Recommended reading for those wanting to more fully understand their disease. Here is the Abstract: [i]

Surgery While on Xtandi/Eligard
I have been on Xtandi/Eligard now for about 5 months. At a psa of around 1.9 last March psma pet picked up 3 nodules in my lungs. All less than a cm. I am hormone sensitive and my current psa is undetectable. This July I had a ct scan of chest/abdomen/pelvis. The mets in the lung have decreased in size

CTC MEANING
I entered the SPLASH trial in Spet 2022 and had my first treatment in Dec 2022. I had mets from PSMA scan aZhang at Moffitt.

Quite happy with ADT
Almost 83 years old, living presently in Germany, RT and PT not possible, ADT during the last 9 months (Lupron quarterly), PSA down to undetectable, quite happy with that.

ED no more
My case is unusual in as much as I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer four years ago. A bone scan identified many areas where I had bone mets, even one between my shoulder blades on my spine that looked like structural surgery was inevitable. My PSA topped 1000 and I had zero treatments of any

PSA seasonality
I am mounting a theory that has to do with increased PSADT during winter vs summer time. For this reason I analyzed my old PSA readings during the 2+ years before starting Bicalutamide. I divided the year into two halfs assigning winter as the period starting on the autumnal equinox and ending on the

Things I Like About ADT
I know that no one, like NO ONE, actually wants to be on ADT. There are a lot of downsides to it, and complaints about the fatigue, lack of sex drive, etc. are a common theme on this forum. I'm about a year out now from starting on Zoladex shots (a drug that works in the same way as Lupron), and I

confused
I was diagnosed with pc in 2020. Psa was 4.5 and Gleason 9 disease. MRI said no worrisome bone signalling whatever that means. Had surgery but psa persisted at 1.7. Path. Report showed regional spread but 3 lymph nones removed were clear. Eligard shot, Casodex for a month and 33 EBRT treatments

Waiting on AF for FET cycle
Hi, so I was due for AF yesterday 25/10, to then inform my clinic and start my medications in preparation for FET but still not any sign of it. Not even any tinted discharge. Is it right that it’s once there is fresh red blood? I have tested and BFN so not sure what’s happening. Just to add I had 4
