I had 25 sessions of radiation along with start of ADT. Was able to take care of myself at home but needed emotional support.
Many guys I know and have heard of who have had surgery end up needing radiation anyways. I suggest you do your homework and research it and talk with multiple cancer doctors - each guy's case is different. Good luck man

Since there are no Mayo's around, I'm going to Sloan Kettering. They are the best in the NYC area as far as I can tell. I'll get the news from both the radiologist and the surgeon at the end of this week since I just had the PET scan. Scan wasn't great.
Did you drive to each radiation session, or did you have a driver?
