Anyone on Orgovyx have a raging appetite?

Posted by heavyphil @heavyphil, Oct 1, 2024

Since being in Orgovyx - 2 months - I have been constantly hungry no matter how much I eat or how full I feel. Weird cravings too - like a pregnant woman! I wake up looking for a box of CrackerJack and I hate the stuff!
When I read about Boar’s Head recalling all their liverwurst I immediately wanted to run out and find some - listeria and meat allergy be damned….
Trying not to gain weight so it’s tough….

Yes!! I DESPISE lima beans! But since you’ve mentioned them I feel like eating them right now…followed by an entire Entenmann’s Pecan Danish Ring…
Perhaps as robertmizek has said, radiation will cut my appetite but I know it won’t be in a good way…

Let's face at @heavyphil, we have all been guilty of downing an Entenmann’s Pecan Danish Ring well before PCa ever entered the convo! ;O)

I do have a decent appetite on ADT now. When I first started on hormone therapy, my digestive system had shut down completely for a couple weeks after surgery to remove the tumour on my spine, and I was on I/V feeding and a suction tube through my nose down into my stomach.

It took 3+ months for me to have a normal healthy appetite again and enjoy food. If ADT helped me get back there, then +1 for ADT! 🙂

The same with Lupron. Had to laugh at some of the responses.

We need to arrange a (virtual) ADT pizza party some day. 🍕
