Hi, I was given radiotherapy 10 years ago & had 9.5 great years but recently diagnosed with Stage 4 metastasis with 3 spots on my spine undetectable by bone scan but visible on CT. Being treated with Abiraterone only. I see some uplifting stories here & elsewhere but given only 2/3 years by oncology. I hear Chemotherapy along with Hormone therapy is administered in many clinics. Can anyone advise?

Get a 2nd opinion as fast as possible, 2 years ? No way, you will 20 if treated with the 3 combination right from the start!

I am on Xtandi for a year and it has stopped working Mets in spine L1 and T10 to 18 small spots and on hip Xgeva was added and i still get Zolodex every 3 months

Looking a chemo in January and maybe a LU 177 clinical trial 8 years now and pray for more 79 feeling fine Darn flu bug though right now Had the shot and covid on Friday

PSA was 1,7 then 6.8 Xtandi down to 3.0 now back to 6.5

2017 had prostate radiated. 2020 had L2 radiated 1 inch out and back on Zolodex that stops testosterone the fertilizer of cancer Get on Zolodex shots
Jan 2023 PSA went up to 9.8 and several small spots on T 10 to T 9 and another 1 inch on L1 this time Put on Xtandi and PSA dropped to 1.7 and Xgeva plus vitamins C and D and gummy apple cyder vinegar for white blood cells
Xtandi Enzalutamide has slowly stopped working as PSA now 6,5 In Jan 24 they are looking at Chemo for me 8 sets 3 weeks apart. Looking also at Clinical Trial of 177 LU at PMH Princess Margaret but its random so I could just get Chemo that I can do near by CVH Credit Valley H
Oncologist said lots of options so just stay fit, positive and I pray daily
79 and feel fine Off to Sandals in Jamaica again for New Years Just got back Nov 28th
Get on Zolodex, Xgeva and others and only chemo as advised Quality of life is important Stats of 30% make it 5 years are based on 2010 to 2018 data Lots of new treatment plans since then not included in stats Get restaged with todays latest stuff.
