Steroids with Chemo: What is your experience?

It sounds like it might be castrate-resistant, then (my cancer is also metastatic to the bones, but castrate-sensitive, so my PSA is staying < 0.01 without chemo).

In your case, as far as I understand as a layperson, chemo at for castrate-resistant PCa is a mainstream treatment. I was just curious, for my own sake, whether you and your care team were experimenting on the cutting edge by using chemo on PCa that was still castrate-sensitive.

Thank you for sharing the information, and best of luck!

Hi Northoftheborder; I will ask your question to my medical team when we meet in 3 weeks and I will bring the answer here. All of these medical concepts, words, terms are still new to me and I need the clarity of the scientists to guide me to form my own thoughts , my own hopefully enlightened judgments which will help me draw what I hope will be true and optimistic views if not conclusions.
Thank you for your attention.
