Prostate cancer recurrence treatment

10 years after recurrence. Originally had a radical with clear margins. 2 years later my psa was 1.0 and had radiation of the prostate bed. Didn't work. Rising psa again. On my own, I asked if Casodex would help. The answer was 'Perhaps. It won't kill it but it knocks it back. That's what it has done. At first I did 3 months on/off. Summer heat was really tough and it took a lot of energy away. On my own, I started month on/off and that works better...strength and energy wise.

My psa varies from around 0.1 after a month on Casodex to 0.3 after a month off. For me, this is vastly better than Lupron based on what I've read. Has anyone else tried Casodex (Biticalymide)?
