Orgovyx side effects and handling them
Prostate Cancer | Last Active: 4 days ago | Replies (59)Comment receiving replies
I also have Gleason 9, and I go to the Moffit Cancer Center. The radiation oncologist suggested 6 mo. Orgovyx, and that plan was reinforced by an AI tool called "Aptera AI". I have completed HDbrachy and started SBTR. I have many SE from ADT but the worst is insomnia and daytime fatigue. I believe that exercise is the best therapy. My oncologist has forbidden pickleball and bike riding, which were my go to activities, so now I walk and swim on alternate days. It all falls under the "new normal".

Why are they forbidding Pickleball and bike riding? I guess I could see bike riding after HD. Exercise has so helped me while on ADT. Some days it is tough to get moving but once I do, glad I did. 2 months left on 6 mos. of ADT and it is getting tougher to get moving.

It’s Artera AI
Hopefully the test is really accurate. The NCCN guidelines call for 18 months to two years of ADT For a Gleason nine.
You should consider working with a genito urinary oncologist, The ones that specialize in prostate cancer. You are a Gleason nine which is very aggressive, it would make sense to have an GU oncologist working with you not just a radiation oncologist.
