Zytiga is terrible for people with heart issues. I can’t believe the doctor has said he will prescribe it after having a heart attack. That drug gave me high blood pressure for which I have to take three pills twice a day now, after I started using it 5 years ago. I haven’t been on it for three years, but I’ve had two afib of events since I stopped And three while I was on it. It messed me up. I do know other people that have been on it for a while and have had no problems, But not people with heart issues. One guy I know was on it for five years, he had to have stents put in his heart after stopping.

I switched to Nubeqa Almost 3 years ago and it works great. I know a lot of people using it and almost no one has side effects. There is a problem, however, If you are castrate resistant and have metastasis, it is not FDA approved. In my case, my doctor doesn’t have to follow those approvals, because I’m In a Medicare advantage HMO. I know many people in their 80s that are using it as their only drug and it keeps their PSA undetectable.

I’ve been on a blood thinner for almost 5 years and it works great with Nubeqa. I’ve Had multiple surgeries where they had to put me under and I had to stop the blood thinner for a few days, but not Nubeqa.
