Hi,
We went to his oncologist, and he ordered Remeron. Next visit, he will reevaluate to determine if my husband's medication should be treated. My husband is reluctant to make any changes, because his PSA is undecidable. However, it's impacting his quality of life. I have been searching for a support group or counseling for us to attend. It would benefit him if he heard others experiencing the same situation. He lost his best friend a few months ago from a sudden death. That was devastating for all of us, as it was unexpected. They spoke daily, and I know there is a void. I have to say it's difficult to find a support group in our area for prostate cancer. Most support groups are generic. A few support groups I came across were in other states. I stumbled on this forum. However, I will keep looking. I agree, the key is to exercise, which I will continue to encourage. Thank you for your feedback. Best of luck to you as well.

Finally a fellow sufferer with my exact drug mix! I have been on zytiga/orgovyx/prednisone since march. Post op psa 1.8 then 2.3 3 wks later. Stage 4 lymph node involvement and bladder neck and positive margins. 30days later with a few hot flushes and some fatigue psa undectable thru last wk. I run a business and can t find help to recuperate in a normal sense. I think the responsibilities keep me from dwelling on a poor set of circumstances. A nap after lunch helps and additional sleep at nite is necessary. Probably functioning at 90 percent normal. What else to do. This space is enormously helpful on the emotional side. Thanks all
