For sleeping ask Dr. about 2 Tylenol PM, made a big difference for me. Went from sleeping 2 hrs to 6 or more. I was also on it for 6 months, my strength dropped like a rock even after and has taken a while to recover. Doing PT now 5 months later to improve leg strength and its working.

Thanks for the info. PT is a good idea. I'll also try the Tylenol PM but I already take 2 drugs to help with sleep, Trazodone and Gabapentin. I still have my prostate and it's not very big. Prior to Proton treatment, I always slept through the night without having to get up to use the bathroom. No more. Every night I am now up 2-3 times for that, and on occasion more. I'll ask my doc about that but honestly I was informed of that likelihood before I started treatment. I just wish I understood better why that happens and whether there's any hope for a return to my prior sleeping state over time, or after I've stopped Orgovyx for some time.
