Replies to "@scottbeammeup Based on your problematic ADT experience after SBRT, would you have been able to join..."
At one month past SBRT and while still on ADT I had no problems doing any day-to-day activities. I did have SpaceOAR gel and had no rectal issues, but some people do get diarrhea from radiation. I just needed Flowmax.
I did get depressed from ADT but when distracted I was OK. Most people I know who took ADT didn't get depression but did get hot flashes (which I didn't get). If it were me, I would go on the cruise as long as there was a ship doctor or nurse. I probably would have needed an occasional nap.
