Is ADT causing anemia

Posted by waynerl @waynerl, 4 days ago

I have been on ADT therapy using Abiraterone and Prednisone for one year, my PSA is 0.1, but my red blood cell count is in the low range. I don't know how accurate PSA readings are concerning my cancer. The prostate cancer I had 15 years that was successfully treated with radiation came back a year ago and metastasized to my right lung. My oncologist says I have to stay on my ADT meds until I die from something else. But I am so tired all the time and struggle to breathe, due to anemia. ~Wayne L.

@gently
In that case I ask, “who’s calling” ,ignoring what they said about a name. If it sounds like a legitimate call, then names are available.

Jeff, I was teasing Wayne a bit, because I called him and he said --yes, after hesitating. He wouldn't give over any of his bank account numbers though. He was suspicious.
