Why did you choose Apalutamide and not Darolutamide (Nubeqa).
I am currently 73 . I’m on my second recurrence. I started my journey at age 55 with a Prostatectomy. My PSA was 5.53. Gleason was 3 + 4= 7.
60 years old, stage 4 - lymph nodes but not bones or organs. Gleason 7 (4+3). Eligarde 3 monthly injections, 240mg apalutamide daily. Radiation in Dec 2023, prostatectomy not done, current PSA 0.1 and holding steady.
Very true. It's also important to recognise that some types of prostate cancer (the kind the public is aware of) develop so slowly that people often die of old age before there's serious progression, while others are so aggressive that they can kill you within a couple of years of diagnosis unless you get immediate treatment. There's also a spectrum in-between.

Good morning I'm 66, had my first session of proton radiation yesterday at mayo rochester 4 more to go, was diagnosed 2 years ago, psa 6.2 for the last two years. gleason score went from 6 to 7 so I decided to take care of it with proton. went back and forth on the hormone therapy part of it. they wanted me to do 4 months one shot. I decided to try it for 1 month and go from there. Good luck to you all.
