Day 16 - Three Dot Mafia member

51 yr old with stage IVa on day 16 I think of the 30 day radiation treatment. On ADT, Abiraterone acetate, and Prednisone plus I'm using Ivermectin Fenbenzaloe and the usual 50 other supplements daily. Overall, all is well... the usual side effects (some mood changes that are a little concerning) but the hot flashes and night sweats are now next level! I'm throwing around the idea of creating a clothing line - of terry cloth bed clothing and other Three Dot Mafia gear just for prostate patients and survivors. 😀 Three dots of course being the permanent 3 Dot tattoos they use to line up the cyber knife. Don't steal it it's trade marked lol... What nighttime solutions have you guys come up with?

  1. Hi . Night sweats and hot flashes should probably get more attention than they do since they interrupt sleep and it is known that sleep helps with fighting disease. Our editorial team put together this article on hot flashes: https://prostatecancer.net/living/dealing-hot-flashes. As a side note, there are specialty shirts for people who have had shoulder surgery or trouble getting shirts over their head, so there is precedent for specialty clothing for medical situations.
