Yeah, I have friends in the trades so I know what you mean about bouncing here and there. No way you can sneak in even more exercise given what you do all day. And having arthritic knees (my father needed a double knee replacement at age 72) there’s not much more you can do.
A month off of Orgovyx does not mean you will feel instantly better. They say the side effects after stopping do not take as long to go away as with Lupron but it still may take up to 6 months until your body fully readjusts itself to your ‘old’ normal.
I have heard others complain of the same thing but then report that it started to quickly get better after the first 6 weeks or so. I won’t know myself for about another 30 days; then I am done. But aside from the hot flashes and a voracious appetite, I have not had much in the way of bad side effects as you have had. I did increase my exercise to daily walking, cycling and some weights, but at age 70 I am retired and have the time for it. You, unfortunately, are still working - doing heavy physical work - so it really is hard for you right now.
All I can do is encourage you to not put a time limit on when you should start feeling like your old self - it’s like watching that proverbial pot of water coming to a boil! It WILL happen and when it does you’ll know it! Gotta be better in 2025, right?
