Thank you Jeffmarc for your comments. Dr Amar Kishan when he treated me with SBRT in April, he suggested ADT for 1 year. I asked him what if I don't take ADT. He said my cancer coming back is 50%. ADT cuts it down by 50%. That means there is 25% chance that cancer coming back!
When I told him that Dr Schulz said that I can stop ADT now, he said it is ok!
It is all probabilistic, nothing definitive for sure!

Might be an idea to get your guy to read the two recent reports I cited earlier in this thread clearly questioning the marginal difference made by ADT over modern radiation. Maybe he already knows them. My guy did not.

As you suggest, its something of a lottery.
