Advanced Prostate Cancer

I had increasing left Thoracic back pain in
October 2024. Aleve was not relieving the
pain, and then my legs were getting numb,
and wobbly. Sunday PM 10/20/24 I could
not move my feet, and went 911 to the ER
at Abington Hospital. My PSA was 2635, and MRI showed severe compression of the
Thoracic spine. I had emergency T-4-T-6
spinal Decompression surgery at 4:30AM
10/21/24. Tissue biopsy positive for
Metastatic Prostate Cancer. Just completed 6 weeks of home IV antibiotics
for spinal wound infection on 7/24/25.
On Orgovyx 120mg po daily. Did not tolerate
Erleada due to pruritic rash, and horrible mood swings. I am slowly improving with leg numbness, and weakness my main
complaint at present. Will see Urology on
8/4/25 for follow up.
