Hello, no worries, I was diagnosed with an aggressive stage 3 prostate cancer in Jan 2014, prostate removed, started to come back in summer of 2014, had drug therapy at the end of 2014 and 8 weeks of radiation 5 days a week the following year, went till May 2022 with three-month checkups throughout the time frame. My doubling time determined when I should start a new therapy. I started on Orgovyx in May 2022, Undetectable PSA a month after I started on it. Have been going well since, undetectable each 3 months. No side effects for me. Next checkup is coming up and feeling fine. Currently age 73. New strides are on the way.

Thanks for telling about your prostate cancer and the fact that you're doing well, having had quite a lot of treatment, in the ~10 years since your diagnosis. Yes, I know science is making great strides in prostate cancer therapies, which is very encouraging. Sure hope you continue to do well!
