Hi James! They took out 19 nodes - 13 on the left and 6 on the right. The tumor I had was all on the left side. I will have another PET PSMA scan on July 31 and then start Firmagon for 2 years on Aug 5. My next appointment with radiologist is Aug 20, which I believe is a simulation to get me ready for radiation. Also, results of a DEXA bone scan I did last Friday came back good (as far as I can tell). They also tested my current testosterone (baseline before meds) which came in at 394.
I hope you are doing well! 🙂
