Should I be seeking extra treatment?

Hi Brett, my current situation is very similar to yours. G 4+5=9, RALP with several less than positive findings and now a PSA of 1.52. I will have a PSMA PET scan on Thursday July 31 and I am bracing for more bad news, although hopefully that I will turn a corner soon. Starting Firmagon ADT on Aug 6 and as long as no disastrous results, will be getting radiation of some sort in late august/ early September. I hope to achieve the same psa numbers you have.
I also have severe ED and have ordered a pump from Amazon. I hope things keep heading in a positive direction for you 🙂

Dang! Hope your treatments are successful and smooth as possible. Regarding the pump, I too bought on Amazon but the one I recently got from my doctor is a bit different and uses a ring ejection mechanism that holds the blood in better. The ADT is obviously going to work against you but try and stay in the game. That’s what im doing, only 10 months post surgery but send a lot longer.
