Thank you @michaelcharles, great information. Glad your PSA is now undetectable with the additional treatment. Any side effects from salvage?

Again, I am somewhat hesitant to get the cart before the horse.
IF you were to have salvage radiation treatment, most men, and I, report nominal to mild side effects (SEs) which resolve w/in 4 weeks of treatment ending.
ADT hormone therapy has its own SE profile and seems to be very varied and individual. My SEs were mild to moderate, and substantially disappeared over a number of months.
Concurring with others, suggesting a 2d opinion and not getting ahead of yourself.
Best wishes.
