This forum is for the discussion of anything to do with Prostate Cancer.
There are only four rules:

  • No fundraisers, no commercials (although it is OK to recommend choices of treatment or medical people based on your personal research; invitations to participate in third-party surveys are also acceptable, provided there is no compensation to YANA);
  • No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
  • No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
  • Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making

Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.

Two weeks ago i was taken off of flutomide and put on casodex, my results show an increase in psa?? is two weeks long enough for the drug to take effect? psa on flutomide 3.5, 6.6 > casodex 7.2

After having been taken off of flutamide you should have waited for a few weeks to see if there is an anti-androgen withdrawal response before starting with casodex.
