Hey deku, where are you at with your treatment at this point? I remember your biopsy results being not so great.
Are you on ADT? Thanks,
Phil

ADT since Dec 2024; oncologist says I'll need to stay on it for years. I hate it. Completed 28 sessions of radiation (IMRT) last week, side effects continue to linger and extended lack of restful sleep is taking a toll. No idea yet whether radiation was effective and/or whether it caused significant long-term collateral damage. Three weeks ago, developed either an allergic reaction to one of my many medications or else late-onset eczema due to compromised immune system. Overall in a pretty sucky phase of treatment; wondering if it will ever get better or if I will always have some version of a side effect or complication to deal with.
