You might consider asking for an FDG Pet scan. Some people have prostate cancer that doesn’t produce PSMA, In those cases, the PSMA pet scan does no good?

I guess you’re not over 65 otherwise your Xtandi Would be free by now. You might consider a different insurance plan, You can change right now.

You are correct.... I'm 64...65 in about 5 months. Also did not know about FDG and Xtandi cost after 65. Thank you. May be some light, for a little while, after all. Not sure what treatment options are left besides Chemo.
