Prostate cancer radiation failed

No metastasis has shown up yet. I had cyberknife a year ago, but psa still high. The doctor said I chose the wrong treatment and should of had a full pelvic. Patient bashing.. I said well I'm the patient doc. If that was the wrong treatment, then why the heck didn't be a little more doctorish and tell me. You gave me that as a choice and now after its done you tell me it was wrong and there is nothing more your center can do for me. So they send me off to an oncologist. Im not on hormone because I had a heart attack when they did the treatment.

If that’s truly the case your RO is an asshole - period! As others have suggested go to a center of excellence or a well known hospital and find a new radiologist. You probably WILL have to go on hormones - I start in 3 weeks - but they are the most powerful substance known to kill and control cancer cells.
Have another PSMA and see what’s what. You are disgusted, angry, disappointed and scared right now - Who wouldn’t be???!
But dying from PCa is very, very
painful, debilitating and it steals your dignity. You have nothing to lose by trying to live.
