The axumin scan is not the greatest, Most places have stopped using it, It’s not nearly as good as the PSMA pet scan, and is Not as good as the FDG scan if you don’t have PSMA.
Are you working with the center of excellence? This doesn’t sound like Up-to-date treatment.
Have you had a second opinion?

Yes: the Axumin is the result of getting a second opinion from Dr.
Scholz who determined that a PSMA would be a waste of time at this point and would likely continue to be negative.

PSMA doesn’t show anything. That is the problem. Have undergone two of them. The Axumin is being attempted because my cancer is not being picked up by PSMA and the belief is that I am in the 10 percent category that cannot be seen with PSMA. Is there anything else I should be trying?
