Some good feed back here. Thanks everyone. I’ll be starting Lupron soon and concerned about the side effects. But like everyone else I’ll just have to get rolling and see what happens. Meeting with radiation oncologist in a few weeks to set up radiation schedule and get him to answer a long list of questions I have. I’m a Gleason 7 (4+3) with seminal vesicles invasion. Already wasted 16 weeks getting my insurance to approve a PSMA PET SCAN. I’m 79 and they were hoping I would die before they had to pay🤪. The scan also confirmed I have severe multivessel coronary artery calcifications. More good news, ha. Anyway my cardiologist said okay to proceed with the treatments. Positive attitude matters and I have it!!!! Beat bladder cancer a while back and I’ll beat this. Best of luck to all you wonderful people..

Cardiac health risk is lower w/ Orgovyx (3% vs 6% I think)
73 yrs old had 4+ mos of Orgovyx as part of Salvage Treatment for persistent PSA. 19 following RP.
I would opt for Orgovyx again when needed (if affordable).
Best wishes.
