A loved one of mine was just diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer. He just went for his second opinion, and the doctor said that his dosage for the antiandrogen shot was not enough and increased it to 33? is this normal? also would anyone reccomment any clinical trials that help with advanced prostate cancer.

I would really appreciate any response that would help me please...
