Thank you Dennis.
My PSA has always been very low. At the time of the operation it was 8.0. Since then it has never been above 0.28. Even whith more then 20 tumors in my lungs. I will chech with my doctor next week regarding alternatives for Zoladex.

Just wanted to say that our surgeon told us that aggressive cancers produce less PSA than indolent ones. My husband has aggressive cancer and his PSA was 7.6 at biopsy and 5.6 before surgery. His BCR was at 0.14 and PSMA even detected positive lymph nodes at that low PSA.
Wishing you the best of luck with future treatments and may you find the way to stop mets once and for all 🍀✨

If you are getting a Zoladex injection every three months, I think that’s a mistake, too. You need an injection every 28 days—using a different drug—or you should switch to Orgovyx. At the same time, ask to switch to Erleada. In other words, change your drug combination. And you need to do it quickly!
Honestly, I don’t understand why the extent of the disease is so widespread given such a low PSA level. Your PSA should be in the hundreds.
