getting back to normal after ADT

Posted by lacraig1 @lacraig1, 2 days ago

I had 3 shots of Lupron and one pill of abiraterone acetate (general Zytiga) to suppress my testosterone. I stopped this, because it was simply too disruptive. Last shot was early December 2025. I still have this disruption. I don't sleep well. I keep waking up, feeling like my hormones are racing around in my body Nap often. I feel lousy much of the day. I'm thinking it's affecting my heart. Want to see an endocrinologist. Anybody else having/had a hard time getting back to normal?

@lacraig1 Have you seen a radiation oncologist or an Urologist for a first or second opinion? Have you had a PSMAPET/CT Scan? Since being on Lupron I now also take Rosuvastatin tablets.

@roseat I am not sure how they could help me. I had radiation. But they have nothing to do with my hormone treatment. PET scan was clean. Urologist. My urologist sent me to an oncologist. He ordered the ADT
