T before was about 600 I gave all info I can I'm asking for alternative to lupron and lupron family of drugs. Somebody must know an alternative. Thanks. John q
Some men have been treated with mono therapy by an anti-androgen like casodex. It typically doesn't have the fatigue and sexual side effects associated with Lupron. It's important to understand the extent of your disease before choosing this option. I would want a good oncologist to make that call.
Thanks to you and all what about patches and other unpopular drugs like something that does not effect the bone health. Lupron is out for me thanks I'd like to hear from anyone I repeat again psa .4 gl. Score 6 three areas of cancer getting aggressive now boswick labs said so. I'm 80 good health lot pain in my back l1 l2 fractures not coming from cancer I was told by docs. Am I too old for radiation. Does radiation effect bone health as bad as lupron. Thanks for all your good work dying to hear from and your experience. God bless all thanks john qpvh
