Has anyone experienced leg pain while taking Orgovyx

Posted by MaxC @cobratk, 8 hours ago

I am 77 in good health except for PC, my PSA was 27.4, Gleason score 4+4=8, and decipher score was .84. I am into my 5th month of Orgovyx and completed my 28 IMRT radiation treatments last month. Since completing radiation treatment my first PSA level was < 0.08 and testosterone level was < 20. So far it seams like everything is heading in the right direction. I am doing weight resistance exercise daily for either upper body or legs. I have had some lower back pains that I treated with heating pad which helped. My worst problem now is I am having severe pain in the back my right leg where I was wounded in Vietnam from a 122mm rocket. I am wondering if anyone else has experienced leg pain while taking Orgovyx or could it just be I am experiencing some muscle loss which is causing the pain in the area of the wound.

Been on Orgovyx since the first week of June. I did have some leg and joint pain for the first month and a half or so, but it has since resolved. I do notice leg and leg joint weakness but, like you, I just finished IMRT last month, so I don't know if the weakness is ADT, radiation, or a combo of both. I do know I feel better after I walk a couple miles. Best wishes.

Leg and back pain are common side effects from ADT Drugs. They normally call it muscle and joint pain.
