thanks for the input I had robotic surgery 6 years ago and until Jan of 23 my psa was 0 but it has been increasing every test till last month when it jumped from 2.4 to 3.4. I am not being encouraged to go on ADT Between my surgery and radiation I was detected with a non related kidney cancer and had my right kidney removed. During this time I was placed on Eligard and it hit me lit a sledge hammer. Are the other alternatives easier on a person than Eligard

I was on Lupron injections every 3-months for 2-years.
Worst for me are the hot flashes. Like gimmick I'm all of a sudden drenched with sweat. I use Paroxetine to help those somewhat.
Overall, no 'sledge hammer' with Lupron for me.
Good luck and keep trying to get the best that fits YOU.
