Adding a second medicine question

You are a Gleason 8. The doctors do not really consider the other lower numbers.
The reason they want the second drug is that your PSA should have been able to be dropped to below .2 by now. So the second drug can push it a little further down. As I mentioned, ask your Doctor about Darolutamide. I can lower your PSA even further and has very few side effects. I’ve been using it a long time and I know a lot of other people using it. If you can’t handle abiraterone Then that is a great second choice.

Thanks. They did want to prescribe a second drug at the beginning, Due to high risk, I guess. I will have my psa checked again this week. My oncologist mentioned will likely recommend enzalutamide. Am going to meet with him again this week. A second opinion doctor recommended trying Yonsa, and if that doesn’t work darolutamide.
