I am on Arbiritone / Zitiga. I have been on 1000 milligrams per day for last six months. I am finding the side effects of fatigue and breathlessness difficult to deal with.
I've been on Abiraterone 1000mg for 21 months so far, I don't have any breathlessness, but the fatigue is very significant. I take a few naps throughout the day to cope, and try to keep as fit as possible with resistance training, going to the gym twice a week and lift to failure, as it helps control the fatigue.
On the plus side, the treatment works and my PSA is undetectable.
I was on Abiraterone 1000mg and the fatigue was so bad that they have reduced it to 500mg and they are going review it in September My PSA is currently below 0.04 which is the lowest they can test for Maybe you could have a word with your consultant to see if they could try a reduced dose. I still get fatigue but not as bad as when I was on 1000mg
