How long were you on Orgovyx, Xtandi, Talzenna? Fatigue unbearable

Got admit, I didn’t realize I was talking to somebody from Canada.

I was more concerned with the fact that he had a serious case of prostate cancer and appeared to only be working with the urologist.

I went to the same building my urologist was in to have a nurse give me a Lupron shot. I Didn’t see the urologist for years and I know he didn’t make any money off of it. But some doctors offices are different. In the last year or two they’ve opened up injection Centers, so the nurses no longer do Lupron shots at the previous location.

It appears that Medicare advantage does sort of the same thing that Canada is doing with the management of patient bills. I’ve been told that Medicare pays the medical service a fixed fee for each patient. The fee is based on the severity of the patient’s condition. In this case, there’s no additional money to be earned by doing extra services. This is one of those things that’s hard to find the details out about.

I agree. I would probably need a referral byy urologist and I'm not sure about that. I go for my injection on 9/24 so I'll ask for about seeing an oncologist. Thanks again and I hope you have a good day

They actually don’t have different ones. They just come in different colors.

The current device is called the Wave 2. It’s been around for a couple years now.

Click the Now round button where you hit start and it will stop the session. Now go back to the main feel screen. Hot flash cooler 5 Should be first in the list, hit the three dots in the right corner, Click on edit and make the temperature level maximum a five. Hit. Save Session. Want to repeat this for all night cool. Click the bottom left Feel button, scroll down to hot flashes and click it Pick all night cool, set The number of hours you want And start it. Then stop it and go back to the main feel screen all night cool Should be the first thing listed. Click the three dots select edit put the cooling on maximum all over to five and hit save session.

You now are configured hit the button with the raised dot two times and it will give you five minutes of cooling. Try hitting it the moment you start to feel the hot flash. It will come on a little bit and then will not get so intense.. When you’re ready to go to bed, double click the blank button and it will send cold waves. Occasionally you won’t even notice it at night, but it should stop flashes.

You can always reduce the cooling by following the above instructions.

I got a question if you do mind. As you know i have mestatatic prostrate cancer and its in my pelvis and clavicle. I'm on nubeqa and injections every 3 months. I noticed as i walk now i have pain in my lower back. Guess I was wandering if the cancer is deteriorating by bones causing the pain

Thanks

Yes, cancer in the bones can cause considerable pain. That was my first warning of the metastasis to my spine, though it was misdiagnosed for a month until I started to lose my balance and the feeling in my toes, and limped into the emergency room determined not to leave until they found a solution (unfortunately, it was 3 1/2 months before I made it home again).

As @northoftheborder says, what you are describing could be a result of advanced prostate cancer to the spine.

On the other hand, I have on and off bouts with lower back pain, But I’ve had it for over 25 years, Way before the cancer. I have a belt I can put on, and within a day it normally makes my back stop hurting and I’m back to normal for another six months or longer.

So the real question is, is your lower back pain a common problem that many men have or is it related to prostate cancer?. Do you feel anything Going down your legs when you’re having this lower back issue, it can cause sciatica.

You could talk to your doctor about doing an MRI, a PSMA pet scan probably won’t find anything since your PSA is so low. A CT scan might work as well if they’ve got one to compare it with. This is something you have to talk to your doctor about. It may involve an Orthopedic MD.

I had this pain before my PET scan course that doesn't mean anything I suppose.
