Salvage radiation aftermath

Hi @makemyday1

Sounds like we're pretty close in treatment profiles. I don't know how long you were on ADT, I was on for two years and now am one full year off of it. My numbers look like this:

Date PSA Total T Free T
6/3/24 < 0.006 3 0.8
11/09/24 < 0.006 82 2
02/28/25 < 0.006 192 3.5
08/28/25 < 0.006 182 5.1

Obviously I tested a lot more than that but these are the only ones with testosterone included. It's not normal but it's a lot better than where we started. Hot flashes reduced to one or so per night and not anywhere near as intense as they were.

@web265 ,
I’ve had a similar climb in testosterone, from 50 in September 2024 to 179 in March 2025, both with a PSA of < 0.01. Today I had my third test (finished radiation treatments in April 2024 and received last injection (Eligard) in March 2024.
Just from my current symptoms from the effects of ADT, I don’t think I’ll test normal for testosterone this time either. I’ll post my results tomorrow when I get them.
