Last week had my usual check up. My PSA is up again. It seem to be going up the last few months. Although I am on enzalutamide (Xtandi) I did not take the prescribed dosage as I could not stand the extreme painful side effect. The oncologist decided to change to abiraterone acetate for one month to see the effect. Also change is my eligard injection which was changed to lucrin (these are androgen deprivation therapy medication).
These medications are very expensive in Malaysia as they are imported from USA. I am devastated by my high medical costs just to stay alive.
