I was diagnosed at 74, gleason 9, CR advanced PC, now 76 had 13 months of ADT and Erleada and RP in a clinical trial at UCLA and off meds now for 6 months, PSA now .01 testosterone 9.
61. Had PSA of 6 at 55.
Waited and watched PSA rise to 17 January of this year then did one and only biopsy. Fusion MRI. 4 out of 12 positive. Low amounts of grade 4. 3 Cores 3+4, one 4+3. Sole 4+3 is less than 10%.
Proton therapy scheduled to start tomorrow.
Hello, I am sorry to hear that the cancer spread after the treatment. My psa was at 0.11 in December and recently it was .03 in early March. I was unable to tolerate the side effects of the ADT and stopped after one round. I am hopeful that the psa will remain low. I have no idea if and when they will perform the pet scan again? Hang in there and don't lose faith!
Similar Had my L2 lumbar intensely radiated Then zolodex 2 yrs later MRI shows in L1 T10 T11 Now on Enzalutamide or Xtandi Psa dropped in a moth to 4 from 9.8 Blood work April
That is so true! Keep the faith!
I'm 60, blood work in mid 2021, psa was 22+, psa in late 2022 32+. ( a little history) cold turkey stopped smoking after 40 years in early 2021, Dr told me lets recheck psa in a few months, my procrastination I didnt go back to recheck for a year +. Yes MY fault. anywho after a MRI and Biopsy in early 2023. 6/7 are the Gleason score's pretty much thruout . Acouple of leisons detected too. This is all new territory for me so please forgive my ignorance. I pray for everyone in this fight.
I was diagnosed in August of 2021 and I'm 58.
I am 68. You are always too young to have Prostate cancer!
70. Psa was 10.2. In September. 3+4 Gleason. Just completed five treatments with the Mridian machine from Viewray.
My husband was diagnosed in December 2020 with stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer. Has tried every treatment available. He's now in Hospice. He was only 67 years old when first diagnosis.
