My Gleason score is 4+3, grade group 3. I understand that ADT plays an important role in controlling cancer growth and helps the radiation do its job. I’ve just been reading that some oncologist will proscribe intermittent ADT therapy and closely monitor PSA. My RC said that some men do really well on ADT. Do I want to die early from this disease? Of course not. But what am fearful of is quality of life.
As always, I appreciate all of the input from you guys. These are tough decisions.
I’m glad to hear that you’re feeling ok after the 5 day radiation treatment. Was headed for the 6 weeks treatment plan until I asked for a second opinion at UCLA. This is not yet standard of care but it seems to be headed that way.
