Cabazitaxel or Zytiga

Hi,
I am trying to decide wether to have Zytiga or cabazitaxel.I was originally diagnosed with gleason 9 pc in 2008.I had IMRT & have been on Eligard ever since.My psa went up to 96 last march so I had 9 lots of Doxetaxel & it come down to 19 but has now gone back up to 57 so the Oncologist has said I can have either Zytiga or Cabazitaxel.She is in favour of the cabazitaxel.She thinks it will get a better result.

Does anyone have any opinions on these two drugs.I must admit I didn't like the chemo before.I seemed to be sick & tired all the time & it didn't work anyway.Any advice would be welcome.Thanks.

Regards Gary.
