You don't need an oncologist to start ADT to slow this crap down. Urology can make that happen. I didn't see oncology until after I was on ADT for a month and a half. In that time, my PSA dropped over 98%. Immediate ADT for newly diagnosed mCSPC is NCCN, NCI, and NIH standard of care. Even an HMO can't argue with that. (unless, of course, you have an underlying condition that prohibits it)

And... what the H.E.L.L. would we do without all these acronyms. 🤣
