Mind boggling. I am in same boat. I had 9 bypasses 13 years ago. I am not exactly the poster child of cardiac health. Coordinating oncology with cardiology has been a full time job. If only one of them would care… the stuff that scares me is the ADT regimen. I am on it for 18 months, but I might stop at 6 and take my chance.

The tragic fact is that NOBODY KNOWS and they simply can’t admit that.
Most patients simply don’t want to believe how MUCH is really unknown.
At some point you have to have a frank conversation with yourself, weigh the pros and cons, risk/rewards and make your own decision.
