Hi. @melcanada . I'm sorry to hear about the flareup.

Am I right in remembering that you've had radiation to your lumbar spine before, and maybe also chemo? Are you and your oncology team discussing radiation to the new metastasis at T10? And what have they told you about possibly switching from Zolodex to Orgovyx combined with one of the -lutamides to get the PSA back down?

I hope your oncology team comes up with a new treatment plan that works for you in 2025. It seems promising, at least, that just one small new bone metastasis was detected.

Best of luck!
