Stage 4 metastasis prostate cancer: Anyone had Lupron shots?

So are you still taking the eligard? You and my husband have a similar story. He is 62. He had a radical prostatectomy and then 40 days of radiation. He has been on ADT 2 yrs this June. He is considering getting off of it because with his back issues and fatigue he can’t do much of anything. I read that 18-24 months has optimum results. Just hoping cured and that psa will remain the same if he discontinues.

I have been off Eligard since June 2022. I am off Xtandi too. The fatigue improves after discontinuing Eligard. I took it for so long due to having a very aggressive cancer. Gleason 9. 24 months for your husband may be enough but his urologist decides that. Some people are off and on this drug. Best for your husband. He needs to stay positive. It’s a long and difficult road but it may lead to a beautiful destination.
