I'll be cheering for you. Like my radiation oncologist told me, there are lots of options now, so when one thing doesn't work, they just move on to the next.

For example, Pluvicto is radiation in pill form that can find prostate-cancer cells in your body and target them individually, even if they're too spread out for conventional radiation therapy:

Thanks for the encouragement.
My treatment is through Northwestern in Chicago.
They are on top of the latest treatments and clinical trials. My last treatments were part of a clinical trial and there were only 100 participants throughout the whole Country.
I trust my medical team but do my own homework as well. I have had as many as five different Oncologists with different specialties on my team at one time.
Right now we need to get the PET/CT scan done to determine the next course of treatment.
I am also blessed to have loving and helpful friends and family close by.

Pluvicto is not a pill--it is infused under strict radiation safety protocols.
