Stopping Nubeqa and Orgovyx after 6 months

I've wondered how aggressively your system would treat a 65 yr old with Stage 4? I hear, for instance, that in England some late stage cancers in younger seniors simply don't get the treatment pre-seniors would. Is that true in Canada?
BTW, my grandfather was from PEI and my daughter lives in Newfoundland. So, best wishes AND cheers from The States!

My husband was considered to be Stage 4. He had 5 weeks radiation, and ongoing hormone injections and ADT (abiraterone)and prednisone.
I am not sure if younger prostate cancer patients are treated differently than the more senior ones.
I realize that I listed the PSA incorrectly. It is, presently, < .2.
My grandmother was born in PEI, as well. I live in Western Canada. Best wishes to you, as well.
