If Pluvicto works and reduces your metastasis all over your body it should also reduce the symptoms you’ve been having.

The same thing would be true of triplet therapy with ADT, a second drug and chemotherapy.

It doesn’t matter how highly recommended a urologist is, you want to see an oncologist preferably a Genito Urinary oncologist. Mayo would be a great place for a second opinion. You might be able to get an appointment sooner than your currently scheduled appointment.

Urologists Are good at finding prostate cancer and doing surgery on prostate cancer.. They are not experts on advanced treatment that you need. That’s why you need to find yourself a G U oncologist. Mayo has them. Triplet therapy, Pluvicto and Chemotherapy are not part of a urologists bag of tricks. They can’t keep up with the latest that is going on in prostate cancer like a GU Oncologist can.

I just double checked and the doctor we'll see at UNC is Genitourinary Oncologist.
Still 9 days seem so far away, but I know that my husband dragged his feet on going to the doctor so a week more is not a "big" deal......
