That's a tough ride, having so many metastases. It sounds like you've had good treatment. Did you have radiation to the prostate as well, to deal with the source of the cancer, or did you and your care team decide that would be too much on top of the chemo and ADT? Have you asked about adding an ARSI like Erleada to the Firmagon to lengthen its effectiveness?

(I think we might have discussed this before, so apologies for any repetition.)

So it's a little funny to me, I didn't decide on course of treatment, I had no idea what prostate cancer can do to me. My funny was I only came here for what must be a muscle pull in my leg that is not healing. Dr said I have stage 4, I fell off the chair, (not really), Dr said they can control it and off I went. Had no idea what treatment involved. After about 2 months, pain stopped. As timing goes, I wasn't about to go look for 2nd opinions. I'm impressed with the care I received, Did a walk in on Wednesday, seen a bone specialist on friday with x-rays, mri on saturday and in the Oncologist office monday morning. Oh and no radiation, Dr did add I was finished with chemo, for now. I recently had CT scan and MRI and appears to be stable. I couldn't be more happy with my care center. Best to all.
