I too have stage 4, Gleason 9. Metastasized to hip,left leg bone spine and spots on rib bones. I have had your meds and chemo. I just finished my 6th treatment of Pluvicto. I'm taking daily Abiraterone and prednisone. Quarterly eligard, monthly zometa infusion for bones a daily pill for hot flashes and numerous supplements and vitamins. I found out in December 2020 and stated the treatments and fighting this cancer in 2021. I started out with my PSA at 1,834 and about 10 days ago it was down to 7.9
I will continue the fighting and treatments to be with my family
Best wishes to all of us "fighters" and survivors.

That’s one hell of a road trip. All I can say is the arbiterone/ prednisone got me under control< .01 quickly. Hope it works for you as well as the rear end shot. Bruce

Check with your doctor you only need to take Zomata once every three months. Getting it monthly is historical. .

What supplements are you taking? Did you need blood transfusions?

I would love to talk more to you. My dad was diagnosed with stage 4 back in April. I would love to hear more about your plan, chemo . We haven’t been able to find anyone to talk to that’s there and knows. Please contact me.

Thank you for sharing.
In Dec 2024, I discovered I have stage 4 prostate cancer, Gleason 9 & metastases in my left femur, right pubic bone and several spots on my spine (as seen from PET scan).
Taking Lucrin Depot (6 months) and Darolutamide.
PSA went from 17.4 to 0.17 and then to 0.20.
Saw an oncologist. He has sent me for another PETScan to determine if I need chemo.
Your sharing is encouraging.

My husband is stage 4. Gleason 6. Metastasized to virtually every bond and 2 lymph nodes. PSA 1696 down to 33 currently. Taking Abiraterone and prednisone since Nov 2024. Pretty severe pains that move all over the body. Lack of concentration and motivation, crying spells. What can help with all these side effects?
