Finished radiation therapy today, how will I know if it worked?

What was your Gleason score? Did you get a decipher test to see if reoccurrence is likely?

What was found in your biopsy? Did you have intraductal, cribriform, Perineural invasion or Seminal vesicle invasion (SVI). Some of those can be long term issues.

Around 30% of PC patients have reoccurrences, the rest don’t. Of course those with high Gleason scores are most likely to have reoccurrence.

I am not familiar with some of the things you are
asking- My Gleason Score was 8 my RO said I had
stage three PC he said it was outside the prostate and
in some L. Nodes . I have no Information on the Biopsy
nor no Decipher test. I see my Oncologist later this
month and I will have some questions for him.
Thanks for your response.
