Hello all, I'm about to embark on my prostate cancer treatment journey.
Some of you have been very kind and helpful and thoughtful in providing me with information and or details about your own experience. I'm very grateful.
Today I'm posting about Bicalutamide and Lupron, which are the two drugs that have been recommended to me for hormone therapy. As both of them have many side effects, I'm concerned. What I want to know is: for those taking such a combination of drugs (or a similar combination), were you monitored weekly or monthly with a blood test to determine liver enzymes or bone density or anything else that might be affecting your overall health?
I want to be able to ask intelligent questions to the doctor, but it's so difficult because there's so much information and I feel like I'm wandering around in a giant maze.
At any rate, if any of you have any experience with this, please let me know. Once again, thank you again for anybody who has taken the time to comment on my posts. I hope I can be beneficial to someone else in the future
