@chipe Hi. Thank you for your comment. My husband had a similar experience. At 51 had a Gleason of 10. Had his prostate removed and during surgery the surgeon said he could tell it had spread to the seminal vesicles. During surgery the surgeon removed 18 lymph nodes and after testing the cancer was found in one. He also had radiation therapy for 33 days and then was on ADT for two years. His doctor wanted to hit his cancer with every single defense.

How are you doing now? Are you done with your ADT therapy? How long has it been since you were first diagnosed?

My husband has been off of ADT for one year and five months.

Thank you.

Hi!
I was diagnosed just this past July, had my RARP in September and start ADT/Radiation in January. I don't want to give it a chance to gain a foothold again. Thank you for sharing your hubby's story! It is encouraging.
