I'm scheduled for SBRT at Mayo Clinic - we are still discussing short term ADT.
I appreciate all the feedback, input and support.
I'll report back!

There's some debate over the efficacy of the ADT in your situation- ie, whether it really enhances the efficacy of the radiotherapy in killing the cancer cells. I had it with my salvage radiotherapy and I tolerated it well. Also my testosterone came back quickly. Best to discuss with your docs. They have the best feel for your individual situation. Good luck!

Had my Simulation Yesterday. Proton Beam SBRT on Friday.
Anxiety as usual - all research says I'm safe, results may vary.
No mandate for ADT yet.
Very cool Doc with tons of experience.
I wish I was still drinking!
