I had the same treatment as you, one year of ADT, 26 IMRT sessions, and one HDR Brachytherapy session. The HDR session went smoothly and is not painful. It is a safe way to give your prostate high dose radiation while affecting the least amount of healthy tissue possible. I was only a 3+4 but with a high Decipher score of 0.81. You are a Gleason 9 which means you need this high level of treatment regardless of what Decipher score you might have.
