I am sending my best wishs to you.
I understand coming off the medication because I am extremely hypogonadal and have been on testosterone for 30 years. When I was told about my PCA my doctor stopped my TRT!
I became a basket case and my quality of life went down the drain.
I was not having it! I found my old TRT clinic and it had a new owner so I went there. the office had moved and it's a trip to get there but well worth it.
Yes I withheld my PSA diagnosis but told my oncologist and urologist about the TRT so they at least knew.
Anyway, 3 years post SBRT my psa is 0.6 and looking good thank God.
Sometimes we just have to weigh the odds and take care of our needs.
Good luck
Glen

@gbear1953 Thank you for the best wishes. I also appreciate your story. What is weird about prostate cancer is young people with a bunch of testosterone don't get prostate cancer. It seems like people lose testosterone as they get older and those are the people who get prostate cancer. Then we treat it by taking testosterone away. It almost feels opposite of what we should be doing. I will read more about BAT therapy for this reason. Stay healthy and thanks for reaching out!
