all margins were clear also nothing in the lymph nodes or vesicles My doc said only 1 month

of ADT and 5 weeks of radiation with a 95 % rate of success. Been a week since my shot feels like they left the needle in my stomach. I guess i'm putting all my eggs in one basket.

Surprising to hear only one week of ADT with a quick occurrence after surgery.

Radiation can be effective but I’ve never heard of anybody having such a short stint of ADT after a reoccurrence.

They gave you Fermagon it sounds like. That is probably the most unpleasant way to get ADT.
If you need to get it again, ask for Orgovyx pills. Once a day.

I think it would make sense to go to a center of excellence and get a second opinion on your treatment.
