We had a meeting with our consultant today as OH PSA has been going up over the last year.

 He had a PSMA pet scan in April and the results are activity in his prostate and a small dot in the pelvic bone.

 Starting on Olaparib & Abiraterone can any one give some information of side effects or anything that you think we’re need to know

Hi 

My husband was on both of these but separately. He was on abiraterone for about a year with minimal side effects then went on olaparib which worked really well for about 7 months. He haf no side effects at all on olaparib. 

So maybe the combination of both is going to be really helpful. Good luck

Thank you… OH started on the combination in June is PSA was 3.3 and his Jay blood test 3 weeks ago is his PSA has gone down to 1

 the main side effect is exhaustion, but he is managing it pretty well

Hi a question…

OH just had latest results and his PSA has gone down to 0.4, which is good news but he is slightly anemic so they are going to monitor this.

Can anyone tell me us this a side effect or is there something else going on

Thanks
