Northoftheborder,
They are all good suggestions. I have been taking ORGOVYX from April 1st and I still have 2 more radiation treatments left out of five. I am going to get a base line ECG next week or so to get a baseline QT prolongation.
I had two stents placed in 2019 based on routine stress test with no symptoms!

I have also experienced QT-interval prolongation on ADT (and Erleada), but after extensive testing at our local Heart Institute, the cardiologist told me there's nothing to worry about, and even cleared me to shovel snow (!!!)

It's important to have good monitoring and care when you're living with cancer, but there's also a tendency to overpathologise us sometimes, building mountains out of every molehill.

Of course, I don't know which molehills are potential mountains. so I still have to follow up on every one with my medical team. But I don't worry about them as much as I used to.
