Cribriform cells and radiation therapy

It seems that every time something out of the ordinary becomes individual reality. For instance, I have lived with naturally low testosterone levels forever. Yet, this tumor grew in this environment and became aggressive - I am assuming because it needed to find other forms of “nourishment”. I get dismissed every single time I mention it. Because… it’s not part of the usual narrative.

Hans, please remember that Association is NOT Causation.
While T is a component of the prostate cancer equation, its presence or absence does not cause the disease - but is associated with its progression or regression. So I do get where you are coming from.
Cribriform cells are a type of PCa cell which are inherently more aggressive from the get go. That does not mean, however, that they will not respond to ADT. And if that is combined with brachytherapy and IMRT, you may well eradicate them.
Start there and then see what happens. This is why this is often called a “journey” - and not a short walk in the park!
