Hey Albcan, jeffmarc gave you some pretty good advice there; and while your case is a bit more aggressive, it IS totally treatable from here on out as a chronic illness; no “one and done” but neither is diabetes, HBP, heart disease and many others which we all carry to the end.
Yes, you do have to heal before radiation, but ADT is a miracle drug for stopping the spread and vigor of your wayward cells. Getting on it ASAP is important. Advocate for Orgovyx - if applicable to your case - since it is oral and many of the nastier side effects of ADT are mitigated. It should put your mind at ease knowing that while you heal your cancer is being dealt with. Best
Phil

Thanks Very Much Phil,

Yes I've come to realize that this cancer isn't going away and will just become a part of life going forward and we will be dealing with it from here on out and appreciate the reference to heart disease diabetes ect and will use that as a reference point from here on out.

Thanks for the information re Orgovyx vs injections, we will discuss if that would work based on my situation and see how fast we can get that started and also find out the timeline for radiation and then research the different options pros cons ect of that, will keep you posted.

Thanks Again,

Have a Great Day!
