Jeff, I just completed salvage with ADT so too soon to know if it was successful or not.
But even with the suggestions of Dr Scholz, I would do it all over again even if a metastasis shows up somewhere else later. Many salvage cases (about 35%) have failed because only the prostate bed was treated and NOT the lymph nodes. This finding has only come about in the last 2 -3 yrs or so.
If I need SBRT down the line to zap a few (billion) that show up, I’ll do it. Best,
Phil
