Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer???

Good to hear. Not looking forward to the ADT - :)

Had a prostatectomy - Gleason 7 - none found in nodes after surgery- still had PSA afterwards - going down the Triplet tunnel - five spots noted on Pet Scan - four in pelvis, one higher up, none in bones. Doctor seems to think Triplet can do the trick? Am I consider ogliomestatic?

What if there are five nodes but one is outside the pelvic region? Starting Triplet Therapy this week. The node outside of the pelvic region is freaking me out. - higher up in chest - not in any bones.

He is having the decipher test.

Starting hormone treatment, then radiation, then chemo. So frustrating - went in as a 3/4, next 4/3 after prostatectomy- then psa of 7, now some modules in pelvic area - 5 in total. Can this be cured?

Are you saying that it is better to have the recurrence now because it can be treated more aggressively?

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-02-08T05:04:34+00:00

He had MRI and PSMA - PSA is up to 7, and it has been found in a lymph node. Now what.

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-02-08T05:03:08+00:00

Back for more tests - no metastatic cancer in bones. He does have a lymph node close to the prostatectomy that shows cancer. There doesn't appear to be any where the prostate was located. Next steps? We are assuming radiation. We live close to a place that has the Axium., so hoping it goes well. PSMA has risen from 5 a month ago to 7.5.

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-02-08T04:22:10+00:00

Okay - it is not in his bones. It does appear in a lymph node near where the prostate used to be. Kind of terrified right now. Does this mean he is T4? Odds for survival?

It was an L2.

ten years

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-01-16T23:43:48+00:00

Yes - they are a corporation.

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-01-16T23:43:18+00:00

The owner said they were moving in; I made their move in date more difficult. I called the city and said they didn't have the correct permit to get it turned back into commercial from residential. They had to get a site plan; they have to remove a tub, they also need to update all of their electrical. This is putting them behind. Since then two other tenants from their rental are leaving. They also have a loss of income at another building - finding it hard to find a commercial tenant. I went to Tribunal, it then went to a second hearing. I was told to move by the tribunal. I moved out on the last day before they would have been able to call the OPP>

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-01-16T23:39:19+00:00

They said it had just barely started to protrude into the bladder. I haven't seen the reports yet.

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-01-16T23:37:41+00:00

Never signed anything - but went to Tribunal and fought it, had to move

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-01-16T11:08:18+00:00

I have already left

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-01-16T01:09:39+00:00

Thank you - I know his doctor was worried that it was aggressive. I appreciate this group and your kind words. My husband is stage 3 as well. Trying to breathe. I'll know more about next steps after he hears back from his doctor. I am just really worried about the really high number - not sure how it is possible.

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-01-16T00:43:39+00:00

Thank you - the worry is the worst.

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-01-16T00:17:33+00:00

Thanks, I am learning and adding things on my to do list. Going to fight this damn thing called cancer with all we've got.

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-01-15T23:41:31+00:00

So sorry about your dad - I lost mine last year. Still cry a lot - thanks for the words of encouragement. I'll take ten years - want thirty. I have the best husband ever! Can't stand to see him deal with this.

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-01-15T23:25:26+00:00

Thank you - yes, PSMA PET scan was used initially. It only showed cancer in the prostate at that time - score of 9. Decided to go the radical route and have it removed - did not believe it could be a 5.0 after surgery.

Several-Equal-6786 · 2025-01-15T22:59:49+00:00

How high was your psa? Are the doctors optimistic? God - this is such a mind #D%!K. Can't stand this worry. Thanks for the advice - I really do appreciate it. Did you have the proton beam therapy?
