I have been on Casodex approx. 3.5 years with no change in symtoms or side effects.  An occasional hot flash which I have had from day one.  In Sept., 2007 I was diagnosed as un-operable/terminal with a PSA of 77.  Since Casodex my PSA has been below 2.0  I had major spine damage in 2007 and that condition has repaired itself after massive radial radiation treatments to the spine cancer.  Right now life is very good and I remain very active.
