Friday I go for my second cell collection for Provenge. First one went very well including the infusion. No serious side effects. Just some tiredness. I am Alison on Lupron and Zytiga. My last PSA went from 4.8 to 1.8 in 3 weeks. Would this be considered a strong response to the Zytiga.

I'd say it's a very good thing! Since doubling up is very bad, doubling down must be very good

Hope with continued zytiga and provenge you double down again to zero and stay there.

Howard,
That is great news. My guess its the zytiga and lupron. I not sure about provenge working that fast. 1.8 nice real nice.
I got tired during provenge and a little sick after the last infusion, but was fine the next day.
Good luck
