My PSA also rose after two treatments. My oncologist and I decided the Pluvicto was not working and cancelled further treatments. Two weeks later my PSA plummeted from 37.6 to 7.2 and then three days later to 5.4

We're back on the Pluvicto treatment schedule.

I will say that the second dose caused me much major discomfort in my GI tract. My bowels and bladder were hard to empty for days. Managed to get past it, but I did think I was finished at that point. Depression, as we all know, is too real now.

My best wishes and prayers to all my comrades out there and their caretakers.

For anyone plugged up... check with your doctor or pharmacist and try taking Magnesium Glycinate a couple times a day and night and it will bring fluid into your digestive tract and help you eliminate.
Also, check out herbdoc.com Intestinal formula 1 which will help your digestive muscles contract and push the goodies out.

Pretty much the same thing is happening to me....after the second Pluvicto injection, I was having a much harder time recovering from fatigue, malaise, loss of appetite and difficulties evacuating . My PSA had risen from 17 to 24, that's the highest jump I have had so far in my four years battle.My oncologist immediately schedule for a bone and upper body scan to see if more metastatis has occured. I am doing the scans tomorrow ( 2-26 ) . Depending on the results, he will evaluate weather to continue on with Pluvicto or not. I am glad i found your post and others. It is possible that the PSA my lower and rise indipendently from other factors I guess. The only sure way to determine progression lays in imaging.... a bit nervous about tomorrow, but I hoping the results will be ok. Thanks.
