Skill Level Beginner
Although we aren't going to do anything in this movie that we haven't already done in one form or another, stick with me, because in this movie we're going to tie everything we've learned about styling links together to explore making CSS-based rollovers. The ability to create CSS-based rollovers is based off of the use of what we call pseudo-selectors. There are many pseudo-selectors but the link, visited, hover and active pseudo-selectors allow us to respond to user interaction for our links. In this movie, we will create a CSS -based rollover for our frequently asked questions links.
By creating a separate visual state for the link and the hover, we can create a more compelling visual guide to the pages navigation. So I have the faq.htm file open, and if I scroll down, and I can see that the links that are going to take us down the page don't look quite as good as they used to, but that's because we've ripped all the styling out of it, and we're going to style it again. All right. Now, I want to bring up another toolbar here for this exercise, so what I'd like you to do, go up to the Document toolbar. Right-click that or Ctrl+Click that if you're on a Mac with a single button mouse, and choose Style Rendering.
So our Style Rendering toolbar is going to come up. Now, I'm going to dock mine up in this area. Now actually I can really pretty much dock it anywhere I want, or I can float it around. I just want to place it in a place where it's not going to take up a lot of screen real estate. Now, if you're on a Mac, it is going to dock within the Document toolbar, and you cannot move it around. So, hopefully its placement will be okay for you. Now, notice that the Style Rendering toolbar right here on the end has some pseudo-class selectors: We have link, visited, hover and active. So as we begin to style these, we can preview them here locally by simply previewing that particular state.
The next thing that we're going to do is we're going to give ourselves a little bit more room here, because we're going to do a little bit more hand-coding. Please don't panic. This is really simple stuff, and now we're going to go through it step by step. So if you haven't done a lot of hand-coding, don't worry about it. I promise you, the more you do it, the easier it will get for you. Okay. I'm going to go right over here to our panel dock, and I'm going to collapse that down to icons. It's going to give me a little bit more room. And then I'm going to go to a Split screen view, so that I can see the code on the one side, and my objects on the other.
So, what I'm going to do is scroll down just a little bit more and find my first link, Backpack Cal right there. Now, by using the Code Navigator, you go hold down the Command+Option key on the Mac and click on that, or on the PC you can simply Alt+Click them, and up comes your Code Navigator. Yes, there are a lot of styles being applied here, but there are two in particular that we're interested in, the very two at the bottom. The first one is dealing with the link state; second one is dealing with the hover state. So as we're writing these, we're going to talk about what these pseudo-class selectors allow us to do.
So, I'm going to click on the second one right here, #mainContent #mainArticle ul.faqNav li a:link, all right, so just click on that. That will jump in our CSS, so our code should just jump right there. And I want to break down these selectors, because taken as it right now they can be a little confusing, so let's talk about those. So essentially it's saying, hey, look in the mainContent region, find the mainArticle inside that and find an Unordered list with the class of faq.Nav, which is exactly what this is inside them.
Then find an individual list item, inside that locate a link. So, all that, just to drill - down to one specific link. So it's a very specific selector, but this is what I want you to focus on right here, a:link. Now just underneath that we have the exact same thing repeated, but a:visited. Okay, so what is link and visited actually mean? Link means that it is an anchor tag with an active href attribute, so an href attribute that points to somewhere. So, this wouldn't apply to a named anchor, but it would apply to any link that is actually going somewhere else off the page.
Now, visited is the visited state of the link. You know, often you'll click on a link and then you come back to the page, and there are some type of an indicator that you've been there before, maybe the link changes color, or perhaps there is an icon beside it to let you know that you've visited the page before, but that's what that allows you to do. Now, the comma between these two means that these are being grouped. Now, why would we group those two? Well, in this case, we really don't want to actually show a difference in the linked and a visited state. We don't want the browser to continually update it if it's been visited, because kind of ruins the look and feel of it.
There are certain menus and lists that benefit from visited links, but this is not one of them. So if you want to ensure that the browser doesn't change your styling or change the way a link looks, you can group those two selectors together, and you know that the normal state of the link, and the visited state of the link will look exactly the same. So those are what those two pseudo selectors are doing for us. Okay. I'm going to click right inside the empty declaration, and we're going to start styling our links. So the first thing I'm going to do is get my background color.
So, I'm just going to type in background, and then a colon, and the color that we're going to type in is # CCC and then a semicolon. So that's a light gray, so the word background: #CCC;. Now remember from our earlier lesson on CSS, you have the property on this side. You have the value of the property on this side, and they are separated by a colon. The semicolon tells it to quit reading this line, and go to the next one. Speaking of that, let's go to the next line. On the next line we're also going to give this a border.
So, I'm going to type in border, and we can use a little shorthand notation here. We're going to do 1 px space and then solid and then space and then #999 and then a semicolon. Now, in this instance I was taking advantage of code hinting, so if you begin typing, often Dreamweaver will give you a list, and you can just go ahead and choose from that list, hit Return, and it will finish it for you. That often prevents you from having to really work with a lot of the syntax. You don't have to worry about typing in the colon, that sort of thing. So now, you can actually see in the Design View it's starting to update every single time we do one of these, which is really kind of nice.
Now, after that, we're going to do a little bit of padding. So I'm going to type in a p, it jumps down to padding, notice that, and I hit Return or Enter, and it will go and finish typing that for me, and it will type the colon, which is pretty cool. For padding, I'm going to do 5 px, and then a space, then 0, then a space, 5 px, another space, and then 10 px, and then a semicolon. So, the first value is going to be the top padding. So that's going to be the space between the text and the top of the element. The second one is right padding, but we don't really need any right padding, because most of our text is not going to make it all the way over.
The third value there, I should say, is the bottom padding, and then the fourth one is a left. So, we're pushing the text 10 pixels away from the edge of our element. We're giving it 5 px of space, top-to - bottom, and then we're really not worrying about the right side at all, because we don't need to worry about that. The text will make it that far over. So that should give us some extra space inside that so that the background color doesn't do what it does right now, which is butt right up against the edge of that. All right. So, I'm going to hit Return and go down to the next line, and on the next line I'm going to do font-size. So, font-size, and here we're going to do .85em.
So I'm going to make the font-size a little bit smaller, .85em, so that it fits within these boxes nicely. So, I'll just make that a little bit smaller there. By the way, I know you've noticed that when you type in a unit of measurement like pixels or ems, you use that small abbreviation. There is no space between the value and the unit of measurement. If you leave a space there, that could cause a problem. Next, we're going to go on the next line, and we're going to type in a color. The color for this one is going to be #193742, #193742.
So, I'm going to hit Return, and I'm going to type in width, and for some reason be very careful about typing in wid, because I always end up with widows, but I want width, so let's do width. Now we're going to do 170 px. On the very next line we're going to do display, and we're going to do block. Okay, now what am I doing that for? Well, these two values, width and display, are going to make sure that the link extends for that entire box. So, that's what block is going to do for us, and forcing a width in there forces browsers like Internet Explorer to make the entire box clickable, and not just the text area.
Now, if I click inside the Design View, it should update that. There we go. Notice that we get that sort of teal color. We get that gray all the way around that, and our padding is giving us a little bit of distance between the text itself and the box. Perfect. So, go ahead and do a Save All, and now the normal state of the link is going to look like this, and the active state of the link is going to look like this, but to create a true CSS-based rollover, we now have to work on the hover state. Well, that's what the selector just below this one is going to do for us, so I'm going to scroll down, and just like we did last time, I want to go over this selector.
Now, the first part of it is exactly the same. So the whole long path to the element remains the same, however, here, we're doing a:hover and a:active. Let's talk about those two. Hover is the state of the link when somebody is actively hovering over it. So when somebody rolls over your link, that is considered to be a hover. Active means somebody is actively clicking on the link, or if somebody clicks to the link, and then hits the Back button right away, focus on that link might still be there, so you might see the active version of that. You know, sometimes you see a little border around the link or a little dotted border.
That means a link still has focus. So that would be the hover and the active state. Once again, we're grouping those together, because we want those to look the same. We don't want any other styling to interrupt our link. Okay, now this one doesn't require as much work as our last selector, because here we're going to change a couple of values. We're going to change some color, foreground and background color, and then we're also going to change the border as well. So, the first thing I'm going to do here is type in color, so just type into your selector, type in color: #fff;. That's white, so we're going to change the text to white.
Hit Return to go down the next line, and here type in background, and the color we're going to use here is #cb7d20, so cb7d20 and then a semicolon. That's sort of an orange color, and then go down to the very next line, and type in border: 1px solid #666;, so it's going to be a little bit of a darker color, so as you hover over it, the border will get a little bit darker as well, although it's going to stay the same size.
Now, I'm going to scroll back up just a little bit so you guys can see my code and if you need to just go ahead and pause the video and look at that code a little bit more closely. Hand-coding your CSS is not hard. Dreamweaver gives this a lot of code- hinting, and if you kind of know what you're doing and know the properties, you can go through it pretty quickly. However, if you're brand-new to CSS, obviously this properties aren't going to be familiar to you, the values aren't going to be familiar to you, and if you're not absolutely precise with this code, meaning, one character is off, you forget a space, you forget a colon, then it can cause your entire CSS not to work or sections of it not to work, certainly this not to work.
So, you want to take just a second, maybe pause the video, go over each line of code, make sure everything is exactly as you see it here, and you should be in good shape. While you're doing that, I'm going to go ahead and do a Save All, all right? And now I'm going to go and preview these. Now I can certainly preview them in my browser, and I'm going to do that in just a moment. But I want to use this cool new feature in the Style Rendering toolbar. I really like this, because now I can come over and say, okay. That's what my normal links look like. What about my hover? So, I'm going to click on hover, and you might notice a slight change in your layout.
It's okay. Dreamweaver sometimes has trouble rendering certain issues, and as I scroll down, I can see now that my links have orange background color. They have a sort of a darker border around them, and things don't look the way maybe we wanted it to. So, when you first do this, you might panic a little bit, but don't. What Dreamweaver is doing here is only showing you the hover attributes. CSS is cumulative, so the padding, the lack of decoration on the text, the lack of the underline there, the width of those things, those are not being shown, because they are not part of the actual hover selector, but they're still there.
So, really you're going to use this Style Rendering hover preview to just see specific information. Did I get the orange background color right? Is the border color right? That sort of thing. Don't trust this as an accurate preview. For that, we're going to go ahead and preview this in the browser, or we could use the Live View feature here as well. So, I'm going to click back on links, make sure I've done a Save All, and then preview that in my browser. As soon as I do that I can hover over my links and sure enough I get a nice CSS-based rollover. So our background color is changing, foreground color is changing, the border is changing a little bit, so we're doing all of that through the link, visited, hover and active pseudo-selectors.
Obviously, this is a little bit of a complex selector, because of how specific it is, but this works for any link that you're currently working on. You can also swap out background images as well, and you may have remembered that we've done that earlier. Now, whether you're creating a menu, changing the default styles of your link site-wide, or just creating a group of rollovers like we have here, the proper use of the link, visited, hover and active pseudo-selectors allow us to create dynamic rollovers without using any JavaScript. Now, one thing that you need to keep in mind: If you're going to use these pseudo-selectors, you have to use them in the correct order.
If you place the hover, for example, above the visited, then after your visited link, you have no more hover. The visited overwrites in. So most people use the device Love-Hate, LVHA as a way of reminding them the proper order; link, visited, hover and active. Grouping the pseudo-selectors, as we've done here, is another way to prevent those types of problems. Now for additional information on what can be done with links in these pseudo-selectors, you might want to watch the Chapter_07 movie on Positioning Background Images where we create something very similar to this by shifting the position of background images in an element.

Second, I have a small help request. Well, I hope it's small. I have a website with multiple authors on it. What I want, is when someone hits the Tweet button at the bottom of the post to add the Twitter username of the person who wrote that post.
"How To Make A Million Dollars http://LifeLoveAndMusic.net via @LifeLoveMusic1"
to be
"How To Make A Million Dollars http://LifeLoveAndMusic.net via @LifeLoveMusic1 by @AuthorTwitter"
I already have it setup where the user profile's ask for their other social media links instead of just AIM, Jabber, etc... So I imagine a CSS code with a request to use author twitter username would do the trick.
Thanks in advanced.

Our first year attempting to book with our home timeshare (Maui) was INSANE! After much diligence....because I just couldn't accept that I was "had", I eventually got a reservation. Next attempt to book was similarly terrible, but I hung in there and was able to book something using Interval Int'l exchange point.
Then, the final straw! While on a trip to Las Vegas staying at the Polo Towers, I agreed to hear an update presentation. The sales person wanted to know if I had any concerns or complaints....so I "unloaded" with my frustration. He proceeded to explain, in great detail, how I could eliminate all these problems if I purchased more points and increased to "silver membership".
I was skeptical but he assured me OVER AND OVER that I could use my points to pay the outrageous maintenance fees and that I would have a "special" phone line for booking reservations and receive "priority" service. So, feeling like I needed to do something to get the most from my already-bad investment....I purchase more points. I FEEL SO STUPID for buying into the B.S.! My first time attempting to book after purchasing more points: 1) I CANNONT use points for maintenance fees, had to pay more fees and STILL DO NO HAVE HELP WITH BOOKING.....
STAY AWAY FROM DIAMOND RESORTS.....so wish I had read the complaints before I committed!

Diamond Resorts high pressure
AUTHOR: lolamb - ()
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, October 22, 2013POSTED: Tuesday, October 22, 2013
I have been a member at Diamond Resorts (formerly Suntera) since '05. We have enjoyed our says, for the most part, except for a terribly bad experience in New Hamoshire. We have a deeded property, but are in the point system. Just to today we attended one of the high pressure up dates! All I can say is people who try to make additional sells umust spend at least 4 hours a day in being "coached" on there presentations. Additionally the "clown" above the presenter must think talking down to intelligent people can gain more sells. I truly hate people that make an attempt to insult my intelligence!
DRI truly wants you to believe that you are getting a great deal with membership! I am a work class individual who purchased a timeshare for the benefit and ability to travel to different places at a reasonable cost. But to buy in at the minimum point
level @ $64k is absolutely absurd! With virtually no benefits! I would seriously consider other options for travel at that level. For $128k benefit level you could by a nice used motor home!
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

By noon there were no chairs in stock. I tried locating stock via online searching - not a single Zellers store within 300 km of my house had a single chair in stock. A coincidence? Did someone purchase hundreds of these items when no one was looking? I don't think any Zellers location had more than one or two (if that) in stock but since customers arrive ready to spend money, they end up purchasing something else (usually at a higher price) so they feel like they have accomplished something.
Isn't that called the old "bait and switch" sales trick? I used an online form to complain to Zellers Corporate and was surprised to receive a reply! Unfortunately the rep "Susan" has yet to make good on her promise to transfer some stock to my local Zellers location. Phone calls to my local Zellers and numerous other locations proved useless as they all say the same thing. No stock - no plans to re-stock. Never had any to begin with...
To add further insult to injury... Zellers is advertising the ENTIRE LINE of zero gravity chairs (5 styles!) on sale AGAIN! They are 40% off and the sale ends July 18. Another sale?!? They don't have any stock from the previous sale?!?
What a joke. This kind of thing disgusts me and Zellers should be ashamed.

SUBMITTED: Wednesday, July 08, 2009POSTED: Wednesday, July 08, 2009
As the manager explained to me, the sales flyers are made up by headquarters with no input from store managers (so he said, and I believed him). Apparently, not all products are distributed to all stores, so some stores never see the items in the flyers.
Our store did try, at least once, to offer a different product for the price of the advertised one, however the advertised product was a well-known name brand, while the substitute was the store brand. Not that I'm dissing store brands, because some are quite good, but this particular product was not on a par (quality-wise) with the advertised brand. The supervisor in men's wear told me they (our store) had never had that product in stock, ever.
With each progressive "don't have" we lost a little more faith in Zellers, and now we no longer even bother to read the flyers. It's unfortunate, because headquarters is the one to blame, not local shops, but it's local shops that take the fall-out.

similar experience with store failing to honour advertised price
AUTHOR: Pee-ode Customer - (Canada)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, August 14, 2008POSTED: Thursday, August 14, 2008
There was a display right near the front of the store with a pyramid of coke products and a sign that was advertising $2.97/12pk. (the price was as in the previous flyer that had just expired the day prior). He gathered up several cases and went to check out.
Of course the pop scanned in at the $4+ and when he made mention the other display the cashier apologized and said that sale was over. He argued and said he was paying $2.97 as was posted. Next the manager had to be called and she too argued with my husband and tried to get out of honouring the price.
There was much insisting back and forth and eventually my husband won the battle (as he should have), not without many other customers witnessing the scene!
They tried to blame some stock boy for not removing the sign when he should have. Maybe so, but the posted price must be honoured in my opinion.

An update on my rising PSA in my "off" phase of IAD treatment.
After 11 months into my "off" phase in 05/13 my PSA rose from <0.008 to 0.022.
In 06/13 it had risen to 0.065 a doubling time of 22 days.
Today 30/7/13 it has risen to 0.098 a doubling time of 79 days
This slowing is consistent with the relapse that occurred post RP and post SRT an initial burst and then a slowing. I am hoping it will continue to slow and stabilise at a rate in excess of 4 months PSADT
In addition My CTC (circulating tumour cell) count remains at 1 which has not changed for over 20 months.
I agreed with my Oncologist that there is no point in undertaking a scan at this stage a) the PSA reading is too low to expect anything to show on a scan and b) we agreed to review where the PSADT sits in 8 weeks' time and review again then.
I have embarked on a more rigorous exercise program now walking 80-100km per week, swimming twice a week and doing weights twice a week. I have shed 4kg in the last 6 weeks and need to lose 12kg more to get back to an ideal weight (75kg) for my height 1.77m .this is my target for Q1 2014, I was 80kg before I started IAD and have struggled to shed weight so I decided it was time for more rigorous and disciplined approach.
I have a 4 week vacation planned in France in late Aug so it will be a real test of will not to give in the temptation French wine and food that will be present in abundance and I am not sure I will succeed!!.
I will post an update in late September on both my PSA and weight!
Best wishes to all in your continued fight with the Bandit
DX ; (Gleason 7 (3+4)) RP in 02/2008
Relapse 11/08 rising PSA reaching 1 by 01/2009 when I undertook SRT , PSA fell to <0.03 by 04/2009 but started to rise again in 08/2010 with a PSADT of 2 months.
In June 2011 (aged 60) I started CAB my PSA was 1 at that time, prior to the start of hormone treatment I undertook PET/CT scans all of which were clear.
I had 3 monthly shots of Zoladex , and took Casodex and Proscar daily, my PSA dropped to 0.04 within 30 days and <0.008 in 60 days and Testosterone to castrate levels in 90 days.
I followed this program for 1 year, along the way I took daily supplements of vitamin D, Curin, Pomegranate, Omega 3, and resveratrol.
At the end of 1 year (06/2012) I dropped back to just Proscar, along with the supplements and started taking Celebrex daily and started Luekine injections, 14 days on 14 days off.
My testosterone took 9 months to recover and my PSA remained <0.008 until May 2013 (11 months off)

Thx for a very informative post that surely will be helpful to other travelers following a similar PCa journey.
Have a wonderful time in France. Enjoy the fine wine, food, croissants, café au lait, etc....all in moderation, of course ;)
Good luck on both journeys. Most importantly, be well.

An update on my latest test results, by way of background i finished my "on phase" in June 2012 and was undetectable until May 2013 when PSA rose to 0.022, it went to 0.065 in June and 0.095 in July doubling times of circa 21 days ,then 2.5 months, unfortunatley my test on the 26th September was 0.37 so a big jump almost a fourfold increase in 59 days. So as you can see the bandit is back with a vengence.
I am being philosophical about it, i will wait for another 6 weeks and see if it remains on an aggressive growth path but my "on phase" looms large and much earlier than i had hoped for. My Oncologist and i are debating what the right number is to restart and or when and if to have scans if we restart under a PSA of 2.
I will keep you posted on what the number look like in mid November.
Sep 30, 2013 - 3:25 pm
I know your feelings and I am sorry for the increase. I think that you should consider getting another PET/MRI before starting HT. The threshold of your doctor should consider the latest capabilities of the modern equipments.
I take our cases as similar with similar paths (and ages). Your treatment protocol has been different than mine but the clock to re-starting ADT may have equal assessments.
I have recently talked with the radiologist of my SRT to get details on the RT protocol (areas and Gy level) he did back in 2006 to access any possibility in radiating over the same areas again. For my surprise he told me that they are also doing these latest tests with the C11 choline to find cancerous tissues. He commented about the relationship between the fast increases of PSA (short PSADT) which is related to periodical inflammations of the lymphatic nodes.
The practical theory is that our body fights the cancerous cells once these get into the lymphs and react against the "immune-cleaners" (anecdotally, they do not want to be turned into trash materials). The fight causes temporary inflammation, big enough in size to be detected by a scanner, and it promotes the cells to expel more PSA serum.
In the past, famous oncologists would suggest re-starts of ADT with trigger levels of up to PSA=10.00ng/ml. The traditional was a PSA=5 to aggressive cases and PSA=10 to cases with history of indolence. However, this included all guys indiscriminately of previous treatments. (with or without the prostate)
I believe that continuous IADT protocols are the perfect treatment for systemic cases but one must be properly diagnosed as Systemic with the best available methods at that particular time, because "things and methods" change to adopt the newer ways. I think you could explore conditions for the USPIO and the F18-FACBC PET, discussing it with Tucker in your next meeting.
Best wishes for many "birdie winning" games in this "long course" of your journey.

as always wise counsel.
I will look into the scans you have mentioned so that i am up to speed when i next meet Dr Tucker.
I also received my CTC result yesterday, this has fluxuated between 0 and 1 for the last 18 months and jumped to 7 this time, 5 is the cut off point above which metastatic disease is evident. I think one of the good things about the jump is i beleive it is clearly testosterone driven, my T score has jumped from castrate levels in June 2012 and 1 in Feb this yr to 22.4 in the last test so it is fair to assume that when i go to "on phase" my PSA should drop again.
I agree with you that it would be good to be able to identify the bandits location.
More research to do!!
Many thanks for you detailed response.
Dec 14, 2013 - 4:15 am
Since I last updated you on my PC post the IAD off period started my PSA results have been as follows.
/* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:Cambria; mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin;}
On Sept 30th my PSA was 0.37
On Oct 29th it was 0.791
On Nov 27th it was 1.391
On Dec 13th it was 1.563.
This shows a doubling time of circa 1 month so very aggressive.
I had agreed with my Oncologist that we would do a scan on Dec 13th also and we have decided that I will restart IAD on Mon 16th Dec with 3 month Zoladex , Proscar and instead of Casodex we will try Xtandi this time given the great results it appears to be having.
I got the results of the scans today (the scan we opted for was a F18 Fluromethycholine PET/CT study) the results identified an area approx. SUV 7.7IM 2-186 on left Ischium (in the pelvis) interestingly this is the same spot where something was identified in a scan I had at Sloane Kettering in 2011 but it was to small to be certain of its type or nature.
Although I was due to see my Oncologist on Monday he contacted me today (Sat) and asked me to call him. He feels we should go for targeted radiation to this spot as well as restart the IAD. I am both excited and nervous. Excited because we have identified where the PC is ,nervous because I have had salvage radiation therapy and worried about Rads on Rads. My oncologist seems positive that because this in not in the prostate bed that they can target this area safely but he wants time to review the best option on where to undertake this. As I feel this is a one shot opportunity I really want to get the best advice and find the best location to have this undertaken.
I remain concerned about damage to bladder or rectum from radiation given these would have been hit with the salvage radiation therapy after biochemical relapse post RP.
Any information anyone has about the best-equipped clinic/ latest equipment for targeted radiotherapy and or radiologist who has the best reputation please pass on your information it is gratefully received.
I also am a realist and no that this may just be the largest of a number of micro mets not yet identifiable.
I can see that a lot of research will be undertaken over the festive season.
More will be posted after my consultation on Monday.
Dec 16, 2013 - 8:37 am
Further to my last posting : i met with my Oncologist today and we agreed that radiating the Met found on my left Ischium makes sense. I restarted HT today with Zoladex (3 month shot) and Xtandi, we will aim to radiate in March before my next shot.We had a wide ranging discussion on options available and there are a number to be considered, In the mean time my Oncologist is going to research the options we discussed further, and also ascertain if we need to map the area now (beyond what is shown in the PET/CT scan) ahead of any future treatment as obviously come March it is unlikley the Met visable today will be able to be seen on a scan if the HT is working.We are going to discuss options as information becomes available to assess but we aim to lock in a plan by mid Jan. It looks like i will head to the US for the next phase of treatment.
As we go through our evaluation process i will post thoughts / discussions had and invite comments suggestions.
Many thanks

My recommendation for a world class RO with expertise in secondary salvage focal RT (following previous failed RP & SRT) would be Dr Chris King at UCLA (California, USA)
If there is any one, well respected & highly regarded RO in the USA who can evaluate whether the location of your mets can be safely and effectively tx'd while avoiding collateral tissue damage using SBRT or IMRT, my belief is that it's Dr King. He may or may not order a C11 Choline PET/CT to compare/confirm imaging results of both studies. UCLA offers the C11 acetate PET/CT. As you may know, for best C11 imaging, preferred PSA should be =/>2.0 & patient free of AD drugs.
Wondering if you might share some add'l details about your recent and previous imaging studies. Presuming your Fluromethycholine PET/CT imaging was undertaken during IADT "vacation" status, what was your PSA just prior to the Fluromethycholine PET/CT imaging. What are the false positive/false negative rates of that image study? How long (time interval) from date of last ADT 3-mo injection and discontinuation of all triple ADT until actual imaging was performed? Why did you/your MO elect the F18 Fluromethycholine PET/CT vs the anti-3-[18F]FACBC PET/CT vs other advanced imaging contrast agent(s). Has an F-18 Na (sodium) PET/CT been performed? Which previous diagnostic imaging studies have you had and how long ago. Would you mind sharing at which medical institution (outside USA?) your recent imaging study was performed. Thanks.
Best of luck as you go forward.
Dec 17, 2013 - 10:48 am
Thanks for the update. I am very curious and interested in your follow-ups because, though differently, I am behind you on the same "route" of testing and treatment (if I can afford it). Please excuse my opinions if they do not correspond to your decisions. In any case I accept your challenging invitation for comments and suggestions.
I think that you did well in starting your next phase of treatment because of your Gs7 and past PSA histology and events. However, the PSA level of 1.5 may have been too low (the threshold) to get the F18 FCH PET. Probably you may have reflected differently if the aggressivity was lower.
I see a series of facts that in my case with a diagnosed Gs6 I will consider before advancing with the PET/CT. One is the curve of the PSA. Sudden rises do not mean bigger volumes that may accommodate better scanning. A constant level is more indicative of volumetric tumours.
As you commented, the F18 Fluoromethyl choline PET/CT study (F18 FCH) got limits in detecting smaller volumes of malignancy (micromets). Studies show that this choline analogue (fluorocholine) manages to pinpoint volumes with a mean SUVmax between 6.0 to 2.0. But benign tissues that can produce SUV of 4.0 may cause false positives in the presence of malignancies of lower SUV 2.0.
Surely, the spot radiation was obviously decided by your doctor because the cancer's location was found and nobody ever can deny that this is not the only spot of cancer existing in you. The success of RT may free you from the bandit and from this forum forever. < src="/sites/all/libraries/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions//smiley-smile" alt="Smile" title="Smile" border="0" />< src="/sites/all/libraries/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions//smiley-cry" alt="Cry" title="Cry" border="0" />< src="/sites/all/libraries/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions//smiley-tongue-out" alt="Tongue Out" title="Tongue Out" border="0" />
Regarding the radiologist and radiation therapist skills I would look for the ones with experience in delivering spot radiation to identified targets. That does not mean that they should be PCa specialists. In any case you should procure the treatment in places with the latest modern facilities and equipments. Dattoli Cancer Center (Sarasota) is famous (and expensive) but I know of at least one case of bad practice that leaved a PCa patient with nasty results and without post therapy assistance. You got time to find a satisfactory place.
Best wishes for your continuing journey.

You seem to be well informed about your status and I was impressed with the info you doented to date. For the record, my intent in asking questions about your diagnostic imaging was sincere and based on your invitation for comments and thoughts about the info you posted. If I misinterpreted your request or my questions were somehow misplaced, then please forgive me. My intent was simply to confirm my understanding of the info you shared (from your perspective) and in doing so, I hoped to learn more about your recent choices and decisions. Perhaps others might also. The questions I posed did NOT have anything whatsoever to do with 2nd guessing the path you've elected going forward. Surely the situation that you're coping with is stressful enough. If in any way I infringed upon your thread, then please know that was never the intent.
I hope the info I provided about Dr King, the radiation oncologist (RO) in SoCal, proves to be helpful to you or others. As before, I wish you all the best as your journey continues.

i am sorry for the delay in responding, i have been on the move and away from my computer. Firstly you have no need to apologise your advice was most welcome.
On the question raised, my earlier scan (post triple blockade ) was a C11 Choline /acitiate though as my files are in transit i cant give you the exact detail. We opted for the F18 this time based on a view that there were less false positives on low PSA with this marker. Again i cant quote the studies.
On next steps after discussing this with my MO (Dr Tucker) we have opted to use UCLA , my discs arrived there this morning and i am due to have a conf call with them in the next few days to discuss treatment plans. This is with Dr's Steinber, Kaplin and Cox , so i think i am in good hands and Dr Tucker who i have great respect for knows them and as he hails from LA we chose them over Dattoli.
Thanks for your again insightful comments , and i am hoping that the plan in development allows me to have a sucessful outcome.
Not sure if my route will take me via Europe but if it does i will make sure i drop in at the Algarve for that glass of red to celebrate your good news.
I will keep you posted.
Many thanks to all for your assistance and comments.
Happy holidays

You noted that Proscar was continued and Leukine started in the IADT off-cycle. 5-ARIs such as Proscar and Avodart are known to decrease PSA levels by approx 50%. If on Proscar when the F18 FCH imaging was done Dec 13, your adjusted PSA value actually may have been higher than 1.563, possibly double, +/-3. I wonder if this might explain the high uptake value in the context of a "seemingly low" PSA (<2) when the test was taken.
Apparently, the F18 FCH study confirmed a lesion on the left ischium, the same location that a previous imaging study (perhaps the C11 acetate PET/CT) found a suious spot post ADT3, but sometime before the F18 FCH study, and also at a "low" PSA value while off ADT and on Proscar. You indicated "this is the same spot where something was identified in a scan I had at Sloane Kettering in 2011 but it was to small to be certain of its type or nature." And also wrote "In June 2011 (aged 60) I started CAB my PSA was 1 at that time, prior to the start of hormone treatment I undertook PET/CT scans all of which were clear." And, "…my earlier scan (post triple blockade) was a C11 Choline /acitiate..." I wonder if/when an F18 Na (sodium) PET/CT study was ever done and if so, how the findings compared with those of the F18 FCH. It's a good idea to retain copies of your PCa medical records for your personal files and reference.
With one "hot spot" identified and the fact that you're asymptomatic for SRE (Skeletal Related Events), the hope is that targeted RT would be with curative intent, rather than palliative. However, as you've commented, and I agree "…I'm a realist and know that this may just be the largest of a number of micro mets not yet identifiable." Xofigo (aka Alpharadin, Radium 223) was FDA approved this year with a specific indication for late-stage, castration-resistant PCa with metastases in bone but not other organs. This option may be a consideration down the road and worth a current discussion with Tucker or PCa oncologists in the States.
Your concerns about the potential for rads on rads toxicity and/or collateral tissue damage are real and understandable due to your previous SRT post RP and the anatomical location of the lesion. It's wise to seek a team of experienced world class ROs & radiologists at a medical center of excellence, such as UCLA, to evaluate both the efficacy and safety of targeted radiation to the spot identified on the left pelvic base. After suggesting Dr King at UCLA, you indicated an upcoming phone consult was scheduled with Steinberg, Cox and Kaplin at UCLA. Steinberg is well known. What are the specialties and department affiliations for Cox and Kaplin at UCLA?
As you're aware, restarting the ADT cycle on Dec 16 may lower PSA and shrink the current lesion over the next 4 months, making it less well defined on any subsequent image study taken in March, when you plan to travel for possible tx. Advanced imaging studies like the C11 Choline or acetate, taken at low PSA values (</=2) may make findings unreliable and it is often recommended that the patient be off ADT at the time of C11 Choline or acetate scans. However, I understand your decision to restart ADT and the double edged sword dilemma if you didn't. With this in mind, even with the pelvic met "area mapped out" or outlined on films from the December F18 FCH study, most medical professionals/institutions, including the UCLA team, will likely require that you undergo an advanced imaging study, such as a C11 acetate PET/CT, at their medical center prior to any tx they provide. This is necessary for optimum therapeutic RT planning in order to compare, verify and confirm the findings from other medical institutions. Precise target planning and dosing are critical to avoid an undesirable outcome of over or under tx. An imaging study prior to tx may identify adjacent areas of involvement that could make focal RT impossible without risking collateral tissue damage & serious side effects. Or, it could identify other suious lesions that also might be candidates for targeted RT.
It's important to understand and consider all factors that make up the big picture with PCa, as you're doing. Here's hoping that the location of the isolated lesion(s) can be focally tx'd and the outcome is successful.

Mrs Pjd firstly let me apologize for misspelling your name in my last response, I was clearly having a bad day at the keyboard in a number of ways (misspelling other names and incorrectly naming others in that posting, end of year fatigue maybe!). You make some good points about my scans and the impact of Proscar on both the scans and my PSA. The scans I had at Sloane Kettering were pre any hormone treatment and with a PSA of 1 so not surprising the matter identified was not clear enough to be classified. At time they recommended an endorectal MRI to be done and fused with the CT/PET if radiation was to be considered. I can confirm that I am now scheduled to go to UCLA on Jan 21st and will begin simulation and consultation. I understand that to name Dr's on the forum is frowned upon but I am seeing all 3 of the Dr;s you mentioned. I requested that they all be involved in either setting the treatment program or reviewing it and allowing me to discuss it with each of them, and they were fine with this approach. On the basis of an initial review of the Dec 16th scan the feedback from UCLA is I will need 1-3 treatments to sterilize the lesion ,prior to treatment the planning/ simulations will involve having an endorectal MRI and may require further PET/CT depending on what the fused images show. In the course of email exchanges /discussions on timing (including with my MO)it has been agreed that treating sooner might be better and certainly no worse than waiting until end of March. The plan is that on the 21st Jan I start the consultation / simulation process which will take 3-5 days and the treatment will flow on immediately following, so hopefully by the end of Jan I will be finished. Clearly I will remain on ADT3 until Dec 2014 and hopefully my PSA will drop to undetectable in the next 3 months and remain that way during the "on phase". Once I go to the next off stage we will then be able to see if the program was successful. To be honest my biggest concern remains the side effects of rad on rad and that is an area where I will be focusing my questioning when in LA. I will keep you posted on nest steps on my journey. A Happy New Year to everyone Kind regards Traveler
Feb 06, 2014 - 11:52 pm
Update: Following the identification of a lesion on my left pubic ramus and in consultation with my MO in Singapore we decided that radiating this single lesion was an important step in my treatment program. In discussion with my MO and advice from some fellow CSN members I zeroed in on UCLA and the Oncology unit led by Dr Michael Steinberg as the destination for this treatment program. After referral and many emails back and forth on my medical history and a conference call with UCLA my treatment program was quickly scheduled. On arrival in LA on day 1(JAN 22 2014) I was seen by Dr Steinberg and his team to discuss the program they would enact I also I had an MRI in the afternoon. On day 2 the team then fused the MRI with my PET/CT scans from Singapore and ran simulations to obtain the best treatment option that would cause minimum damage to surrounding areas while sterilizing the lesion. On Day 3 , I met with Dr Sreinberg and his team and they ran me through the options they had modeled and outlined how they arrived at the solution they intended to follow. It involved SBRT of 36Gy being delivered over 3 days from 6 angles. They were terrific in their approach and the discussion of the detail involved in the analysis. The treatment was started on Day 3 and second treatment was Day 4, I then had a weekend off and had the third treatment on day 7 (a Monday) and flew out from LAX that evening. To date I have had no side effects from the treatment.
I have been back on the "on phase" of my hormone treatment starting on December 16th when my PSA was 1.59, I had my blood taken on Jan 30th and my PSA is now 0.044 and my T has fallen from 23 to 0.39.
In this "on phase" we have substituted casodex with xtandi , and maintained the same approach as my first hormone treatment program utilizing Proscar daily along with Zolodex every 3 months, In addition celebrax 200 mg daily and will restart my supplement program later this month (these were halted during the radiation treatment). Though it is early in on the "on phase" I have not had too many side effects, some hot flushes and night sweats but not to an extent that these cause discomfort or problems.
I have discussed with my MO how long we will make the "on phase" and have agreed we will monitor progress and will decided if we keep it to 12 months as per the last cycle or stop after 9 months this time.
I am a realist and know that while only one spot showed up on the PET/CT scans there are likely more micro mets but I am also an optimist and live in hope that having hit this one spot hard ,along with a CAB regime and a healthy lifestyle I can give it my best shot at beating the bandit !!
My focus is now on exercise and diet to help maintain my overall health and well being. I have also recently sold my business so this year is going to be one where I spend less time on airplanes and more time with my wife, although we do intend to travel albeit and a more leisurely pace then when I was running my company.
I would like to thank those members who have given me guidance and advice as I evaluated the options I had as I set off on this latest course of treatment all your help has been greatly appreciated.
I wish everyone the best in their battles with the bandit and success in programs you choose to follow.
I will continue to up date the outputs from my tests as I go thru the next few quarters.
Best Traveler

I am so happy for you. Your facts are great news and the conclusive results are on the target to a positive success.
I want firstly to thank you for the update and for the details. It surely will help me and the many in similar situations. Reading your story is inspiring and a spring of hope to us all.
The decrease of the PSA is consistent with previous outcomes. We do not know how much of the decline is due to RT or how much is due to HT but in spot radiations in bone one expects the PSA to decline fast and it did.
I hope for your continuing remission and expect to read your good news again at the end of HT.
Best wishes,

Note; I believe you indicated the testosterone in nmol/L unit value. This equals to a decline from 23=662 ng/dL to 0.39=11 ng/dL.
Feb 16, 2014 - 1:35 pm
I would like to thank Traveler, Mrspjd, and VascodaGama for their comprehensive and insightful information about Traveler's treatment. I have been undergoing HT for the past six months and, after experiencing PSA less than .008 for that time, have just seen a rise in the PSA indicating that at least a portion of the Pc has become hormone indepent. The various posts in this string have given me excellent options which I will be discussing with my oncologist.
Mar 08, 2014 - 1:41 am
Firstly many thanks for the kind words, advice and encouragement from all especially VG who is unbelievable and tireless in his support too so many on the journey we all find ourselves on.
It is now 3 months since I started my second "on phase" of IHT and 6 weeks since my SBRT session at UCLA.
My latest blood tests have shown my PSA at 0.01 down from 0.04 in Feb, I had a bounce in my T to 1.8 but this occurred at the 3 month point in my first "on phase" and then dropped back so I expect the same to happen this time.
My cholesterol has risen but I had to switch from Lipitor to Crestor because of the interaction with Xtandi and in doing so dropped from 20mg to 10 mg so I am now going back up to 20mg. My family has a terrible history of heart disease so regardless of diet and exercise I am genetically predisposed to high cholesterol, something i need to keep a careful watch on.
The good news also, is my CTC (circulating tumor cell) score has been "0" for 3 months in a row, while it is not perfect test it is a positive indicator.
I am continuing with my exercise program and have lost 1 kilo and while that might not seem much, in the prior cycle I gained 6kgs in the first 3 months so I am hoping I can keep the weight gain out of the picture this time around and more importantly I have not had to ban red wine to do this, which is always a bonus!
I have had my second Zoladex 3 month shot yesterday and will post and update in 3 months time at the half way point of this second "on phase" of IHT.
Once again thanks again to everyone for your support and good luck on your individual battles with the Bandit!!

It feels good to read your good news. I hope you return again in three months time with yet another excellent update. < src="/sites/all/libraries/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions//smiley-laughing" alt="Laughing" title="Laughing" border="0" />
You have not shared your treatment protocol in this second "on phase" of IHT. Is there any fixed period for the use of Zoladex? What are the other meds you are taking?
Regarding statins, I am taking on/off periods of Sinvastatine (20mg/day). I knew of meds interactions but thought that the typical statins taken in lower doses would be OK with Xtandi. Thanks for mentioning about your experience with Crestor. Dr. Myers also advice Crestor (rosuvastatin ) for guys taking Zytiga with the intent to help Zytiga in being more efficient in blocking the CYP17A1 used by the cancer to produce own testosterone. In other words, high cholesterol (LLD) goes hand in hand with HT refractory.
Due to your risk (family history) of high cholesterol related problems, you may be interested in listen to Myers video explaining about the effect of High Cholesterol, Cancer and Zytiga. Here is the link;
In this link you can also read about the opinions of statins users comparing Crestor with others;

I am providing an update as I had blood tests early ahead of a long planned holiday, the next update wont be until June.
My PSA fell again to <0.008 which is the same low point it reached in my first round of IHT and my T dropped back to 0.9, my cholesterol also has started to fall after increasing the Crestor to 20mg.
In answer to VG's question, my medicine program now is as follows
Xtandi 160mg per day
Proscar 5mg per day
Celebrex 200mg per day
Zoladex (3 monthly)
Xgeva 120mg (denosumab) monthly
Curin 800mg per day
Pomegranate 800mg per day
Vitamin D3 3000 IU per day
Fish oil 3000mg per day
Resveratrol 250mg per day
CoQ1O 100MG per day
Calcium 600mg every second day
Right now I am feeling fine no side effects, I am having to work hard to force myself to exercise and focus on keeping my weight under control.
I had hoped to keep losing weight but have leveled out in the last 3 weeks.
Just to put this in perspective when I started the first phase of IHT I weighed 82kg, at the end of 12 months I was 94 kg , I am now back to 82kg and want to get back to 80kg and long term to 75kg ( my height is 1.75m).
While I have been walking circa 70-100k a week I need to focus on some resistance exercises to stop muscle wasting so while keeping weight under control is important it is also important to look at BMI to ensure muscle is not being replaced by fat.
Good luck and Best wishes to all on your respective journeys
Kind regards

Congratulations. I hope the stress has dissipated with these latest results. You are at even-par. Will you aim the birdies?
Thanks for sharing your treatment protocol. It seems to be the typical Total Blockade (ADT3) with Xtandi replacing Casodex. Both are antiandrogens but Xtandi is more "refined". It works at intratumoral levels. The Celebrex (COX2 inhibitor) was big news back in 2006. The famous STAMPEDE trial for the use of this tumour growth inhibitor was incomplete in my view and has shown little effects, even at daily doses of 400mg, but some patients managed to get high points in the control of advanced PCa. At the time I checked about possibilities for my case of micro mets but opted to continue with the daily aspirin 100mg. Xgeva may have been added to the protocol to help in bone "repair" after radiation (???).
The list of supplements seems to be the best and complete. CoQ10 100MG become big news in 2005 after a Spanish trial have shown that CoQ10 managed to lower PCa cells growth without affecting cell growth in the non-malignant cell lines. Our buddy Charles (Chuck) Maack from the PCa support group at Us TOO has an interesting blog with the views of Dr. Myers and listed articles. I provide the link below to the many reading your thread and that may be interested in your treatment. The title is COQ-10 (COENZYME Q-10) – GOOD OR BAD?
The excellent outcome in this start of the second phase of IHT (with first line HT drugs) shows that you got "extra options" for the fight, would that become necessary. I hope you do not need it but I say this because of your concerns commented in your post above. You say;
"…I am a realist and know that while only one spot showed up on the PET/CT scans there are likely more micro mets but I am also an optimist …"
Any future PET/CT examination may give you peace of mind, in any case I believe that the spot RT eradicated the bandit and that now you should enjoy and engage in things you like doing best. Enjoy and celebrate. < src="/sites/all/libraries/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions//smiley-cool" alt="Cool" title="Cool" border="0" />

Hi everyone, I am a regular reader but have not posted for a while.
In my last post I had undergone SBRT for one met identified on my left ischium, this occurred at UCLA under Dr Steinberg a marvelous man and a marvelous institution.
At the same time I restarted IAD program consisting 3 month Zoledex, 160mg of Xtandi daily (as opposed to Casodex which I used in my first "on phase") and 5mg Proscar.
As I mentioned in my last post my PSA dropped to <0.008 within 3 months (March 2014) and has remained there ever since.
I am now in my "off phase" having finished the hormone treatment in Dec 14. I still take proscar and inject Luekine 14 days on 14 days off, to stimulate my immune system.
During the last "on phase" my weight increased again, back up to 90kg and I noted muscle loss also.
Unfortunately I have injured my back and this has caused problems in my hip flexor and ITB that makes walking painful so my exercise regime has suffered. I am having Physio 3 times a week and things are improving but it is a slow business (over 3 months so far). I have detailed this because I feel that muscle loss is ulative and we all know that past 40 it is harder to replace muscle and much harder past 60 (I am 64) but when you go through hormone treatment I now realize you have to do much more gym work on resistance exercises if you are going to arrest the decline.By this I mean 1-2 hrs daily for 3-4 days a week of some form of resistance exercise.
I had very little side effects during the on phase, at first the Xtandi made me tired but when I switched to taking it in the nighttime these side effects passed.
My hope is that I can last longer on this "off phase" than the last time but I am also a realist and know that the "bandit" in the form of dormant cancer cells is still likely lurking in some dark corner. The CTC count oscillating between 0 and 1 evidences this.
During the year I had the good fortune to meet Vasco and his beautiful wife in Portugal, he is as kind and considerate in person as he is in his virtual world.
I enjoyed his company and we discussed many of our shared experiences over fine food and wonderful red wine. I can tell you he is building a beautiful home in a wonderful orchard where he has planted many exotic fruit trees from his second country (Japan)
I hope to get the pleasure of meeting him again in the not to distant future.
I wish everyone the very best and I will continue to post updates on journey as we fight the Bandit!!

by Anne Frank
Guide Mentor
Character Role Analysis
You might not agree with us, but we wouldn't say Anne has anyone who fits the guide/mentor role. There is definitely her dad, whom she adores and sometimes feels compelled to inform of her life events, but overall her growth seems quite independent of him.
She often desperately wants a mother whom she respects—she doesn't respect her own mama. Anne frequently writes that she is disappointed by her parents and doesn't have any really good role models.
While many Secret Annex members are more than willing to tell Anne all of her flaws, none really take her seriously enough to guide her through her adolescence. This could partly be because she never shows people her more serious and sensitive side.

First of all, thanks for a brilliant plugin. It's exactly what I need and when (if) I start making cash, I will most certainly donate to you.
There's only one thing I would like. And that is suppose I say that only those coming from search engines should view ads, and a person who views the page comes from a search engine, then the ads should still show if they visit another page on the site.
Is that even possible?
