Beginning ADT and PSA tests

I had IMRT x 28 last summer (plus ongoing ADT) then my Radiologist told me I didn't need HDR brachytherapy because it was IMRT and the dosage had been carefully administered... or something like that. All I heard was "no brachytherapy".

So by my personal experience get IMRT if it's possible.

As for PSA tests, yes, my doctors ordered two since then. Both have been < 0.1 and both docs seem very happy with that.

I need to check what this hospital is administering. I checked their website and it states they use IMRT for prostate tumors. I need to confirm. I am assuming that they’re going “all the way” due to cribriform cells, and hence, increased aggressiveness
