Lots of comments here but I want to underscore that there is a radiation technique equivalent to surgical removal. It's ablative radiation, definitive, (not pinpoint) that destroys the prostate. I will be having it starting late October. Here at Duke they do this and it is inside an intensive ADT using both Orgovyx as well as Abiraterone and I am on them now. It's a ride, but the benefit is that I should be done in 6 mos. You might talk to your doctors about it.

Steve, can you give me some insight as to what you’re experiencing taking the ADT cocktail? How long have you been on it? when you say quite a ride what actually do you mean?
Thanks
