Prostate Hormone Therapy For Men Who Have Had Hormone Therapy For Cancer, HELP!?

For men who have had hormone Therapy for cancer, HELP!? - prostate hormone therapy

I have a prostate cancer and advanced finishing my external radiation therapy, both the comprehensive treatment of the pelvis and improve the orientation of the prostate only.

I have my second chance for hormone every three months and can not be a clear answer from one of my urologist or oncologist. I have hot flashes, like most, and chills, but my problem is stickyness. I feel numb, feel, smell bad, is that my wife does not, and if I lick your fingers, because, as in assembling the case of letters with their fingers, stick.

I see my GP next week, I must ask you to send me to the gynecology / obstetrics? I know this might sound silly, a man, but no answer. Perhaps someone who deals with problems of women may have the answer.

In this problem? How can I solve it?

Hello,
I was on Lupron and Casodex for three years in the past two years. In any case, include hot flashes, chills, and pain at random. I do not think the stiffness. My family doctor is a woman, and asked how I hurt my nipples mentioned. He said he had too little testosterone in the body for my estrogen levels are high in comparison. She said that her nipples damages to join the club. Probably would not hurt if someone's opinion, the problems of women receiving address. The problem I had with the drug is that now my skin is dry, I'm allergic to most soaps and washes the body and viscosity appears only in the groin, where the legs meet the hips. Almost like Jock itch.
Good luck and hope that the doctor has a different idea.

What is so difficult. I hope I can post here .. Hormone therapy has attracted my attention because I've been using it for cancer, but probably with different hormones.
I thought I'd say that might change some of these things, given the physical perception.
I remember my mother saying that during chemotherapy tried different foods .. Chocolate and sweets are not the same, etc.
Good luck.

I also take hormone therapy for breast cancer, hot flashes terrible. Ive been making since February 2007 and I also felt nausea and sometimes I have to do now. He told me that this
normal and will go with the times. I'm on antidepressants to help hot flashes. You do not know if it works, say that hot flashes will eventually improve.
As for the smell if it is nothing to chemotherapy is still the same. Their sense of smell is more and sometimes you can be certain perfumes. Sometimes the food is different now. Frankly, I do not think anyone can get a direct answer to their oncologist. I ask questions and never seems to get a clear answer. I also had radiation made me weak and now I feel sometimes weeks. God Bless! I hope that things are better for you. I decided that I live and go on, because I know nothing more than guesses and probabilities.
