jeffmarc,
You seem to be pretty knowledgeable about Prostate cancer. I just got my Ultra Sensitive PSA test results. It is 0.05 after being on Orgovyx for 8 months(Started on April 1st). My last of my SBRT treatment was on April 18th. My previous PSA was 0.06 on October 7th. In 8 weeks it dropped by 0.01.
The only side effect I really feel is low energy. There were some changes in biomarkers, but nothing terrible. In spite of Dr. Schulz's advice, I feel like I should continue with my engineering mindset until my PSA stops decreasing or I am feeling really terrible!
What is your opinion? Any one can chip in, of course.

Your PSA is undetectable and dropping. I don’t see any reason to change anything. Radiation treatment doesn’t always bring the PSA down to .01 or less immediately, for some it can take up to two or three years to get to the lowest point
