My PSA was 37 in October 2014. I started hormone therapy (Zoladex) and by February 2015 my PSA was down to 2.1. The hot flushed, sometimes every half hour were very tiring and a nuisance, but getting that result, I  feelthat it was worth it!

    Looks like you made the right decision! 2.1 - now that's a reason to be cheerful. All the best

    Have you tried Cyprostat 50 mg  for the hot flushes? They cured mine overnight!

    Hi Cliff. I hope all goes well. I found Tincture of Sage fixed my hot flushes. Tincture mind, other forms of sage did nothing for me.

      I am sorry that it did not. Trial and error is the nature of our quest and that is one thing to which you need give no further thought.

    Wow Cliff,

    That is an amazing result.With luck you should be able to come off the

    Zoladex for a period of time and get away from the flushes.

    If mine goes that well,I will be chuffed. My PSA was 13 in Feb 2015 after almost 10 years of monitoring it.I am now on Zoladex again but feeling

    good and positive while my wife an I are sunning ourselves at the beach.

    Keep in touch

    Regards
