Thank you Smoore4 for additional information 🙏. Yes, Decipher is very important factor and my husband has the highest score of 1 , believe it or not.

Yes - it is very tough to swim "up stream" and argue one's case with doctors : (. Even when they agree one is constantly second guessing the decision and worrying that if something goes wrong they will say : " I advised otherwise" , although they advised us erroneously two times already and because of that we ended up in this position.

It is great that you got Erlanda too, there is not hope that we will get it. I think we will even have to fight to get Orgovyx instead of Lupron.

Thanks again for replying and I am wishing you easy and uneventful radiation treatment with 100% success in complete and forever eradication of PC ! 🍀🍀🍀

@surftohealth88 Hey Surfer, I thought that you DID want to do adjuvant treatment and not wait…is that still the case or are you reconsidering??
Orgovyx shouldn’t be a problem to get unless your ins co won’t pay for it…not surprising at $2800 for 30 day supply. They paid like 75% of mine so I still had to pay the other $700/mo.
I decided that since I am an old man now I may not have many more opportunities to ‘treat’ myself to the better things in life so I went for it.
How long would hubby be on Lupron anyway - more than a year?
Phil
