What a total bummer - not many of us think past the possibility of salvage radiation failing…what do the doctors say are your next steps? Hormones, chemo? So sorry you have to go thru this.

Salvage radiation is considered to have about 2/3 success rate and side effects rated under 2-3% but many on the forum have reported more side effects which raises the thought if one is low risk (Gleason 7 and PSA-DT>12 months) to wait and watch? Feel for firespooks...
