@tj1967 In brief, I know why they use ADT (in my case LUPRON) to arrest the testosterone levels, but I keep having the old adage "The treatment is worse than the disease" going off in my head. Chemical castration is not something our bodies rebound from very well at all, at least for me. rlm

I understand your anguish, but treatment is "worse" at the moment since you can not feel nor see your cancer. You are doing treatment so you do not have to face PC's full force which is I trust by hearing stories extremely painful and of course deadly. So, no, treatment is not worse than cancer itself, it just seems that way at this stage.
