I was on it for 23 months and stopped 8 days ago. Now taking half the dose of prednisone for 2 weeks (6 more days). I have had vivid dreams and an hour awake around 2am.

Nice info. I m on 5 mg. Prednisone since day one. Along with Arbiterone. You must have been on a higher dose unless they have a 2.5 mg. Dose of prednisone.

Even the pastor at our church said in the sermon. I m always awake at 2am and can’t go back to sleep. That’s my problem too. The pastor is female. Lol

Has your PSA remained undetectable for the 23 months?

What first generation ADT were you taking along with it, Lupron, ORGOVYX?

I have 18 more months to go and can’t wait to be done. I never gained weight and in excellent physical shape but I’m nowhere near as strong emotionally as I was before I started ADT.
