Rereading your original comment, I see that you’ve only been on Nubeqa 1 month, and have probably had a PSMA PET scan recently, and it showed nothing.

I’m sitting here watching football and reading these in between plays and I am missing stuff. Sorry about that.

If your PSA went down from 32 to .4 in one month it sounds like you’re in great shape. Your next test will probably be undetectable. As I’ve mentioned, I’m 25 months undetectable with those two drugs. I was on abiraterone for 2 1/2 years before, and was only undetectable one month. When I stopped they found and zapped a metastasis on my spine and one month later I went undetectable. Found it in my first PSMA pet scan. Nubeqa Works really great, I know a lot of people on it and they are all doing well. The only people I know that have had problems with it, have stopped, taking it and tried starting again, and it has not been as successful for some of them.

You could get two or three years out of your current treatment before you have to worry about the next step.

Jeff, I've had 3 PSMA pet scans. One when my PSA was 22. The second when it was 12 and the 3rd when it was 32. All showed no sign of cancer.
I've been on Nubeqa and Orgovyx for 9 months now.
