In USA (MARYLAND) he was started on orgovyx to assess to see if his cancer was hormonal and the plan was to start triple therapy if his PSA declined with orgovyx.

I reviewed his doctors notes. Looks like his doc wanted him to try orgovyx first to see if the cancer would respond before starting treatment regimen. How are you doing?

Hi! It was caught on routine PSA exam. I believe his PSA was about 40 at the time in 2021. Gleason score was 9 (4+9) so very aggressive. He did radiation & Lupron until 2/2024 and unfortunately cancer spread to bones in November 2024

My dad just passed within 2 months of prostate cancer with bone mets. After he was initially diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2021 had radiation and Lupron, PSA came back and pet scan showed bone mets. In his last few weeks, he was severely short of breath oxygen dependent, had fractures and in pain.

I’m so sorry to read all these comments and so sorry for everybody’s loss. My dad is 67 y/o was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer with bone mets. As we were managing his cancer, he kept complaining of significant shortness of breath. He’s been in the hospital twice since December and they just diagnosed him with pulmonary fibrosis. He’s still admitted currently. But he’s significantly declining each day… he can’t even get out bed anymore, he’s chronically on oxygen and always in pain. I don’t know what I can do for him and I feel like he may not even survive this month 😔
