Prostate Cance
"8 months into Lupron plus Casodex and I am refusing the next 3 month shot. PSA went from 5.7 to .2 to .1 and am just finishing up 9 weeks of radiation. GL scores were mostly 9&#039;s but no metastatic found. To say a less common side effect is loss of libido is just plain BS. About a month after the first shot I was done with sex, doc said once the testosterone is gone that&#039;s normal. Little aches and pains linger, balls shrink, lost all hair under my arms and slow growing elsewhere. Sometimes seem in a fog mentally. Hot flashes like you wouldn&#039;t believe till they offered me other meds, which help somewhat, Put on 5 lbs of blubber below the belly. Lack of energy as well.  It works but I think DRs. keep you on it too long for Stage 1 or 2 cancers."
