Congratulations Sarah. It is good to have you back with us. I haven't been on the board a lot myself lately, but I know everyone missed you.
Sarah, you probably know about all the different drugs for PC, but thought I would mention some information anyway.
My niece's husband has PC, and his PSA number was up around 12. He is in his mid 70's and his doctor put him on the medical castration drug CASODEX for 2 months. His PSA then checked around 3. He was then put on another drug, which he spelled COMPDES, (which I couldn't find. Probably spelled wrong), His last PSA number came back 0.7. I don't know if this will hold, or if it is a temporary decrease of the PSA number.
Just thought you might be interested in this. If you need it, I can get the proper spelling of the second drug.
