Just started Abiraterone 500mg Tablets and Prednisone for my Prostate Cancer and I've been reading up on the side effects. I'm really nervous about the potential side effects, especially the life-threatening issues like the electrolyte problems, allergies and unusual heartbeats. This medication is essential for my treatment plan, but I'm curious to know how others have managed these symptoms and side effects. What can I expect and what is everyone's experience with this regimen? Anything I should be doing to be proactive about monitoring? Thank you for your input and for any support you can offer.
