Are castration sensitive prostate cancer patients being over treated?

Of course, if I weren't tolerating ADT+Apalutamide well — if I were showing a serious risk of kidney, liver, or heart disease, for example — that might be enough to tip the scales towards an ADT holiday: there's no point surving cancer just to die of liver failure. But very fortunately, I'm not experiencing any of that (at least, not yet) — just the normal, non-life-threatening side-effects.

@northoftheborder Wrestling with this as well. Heart rhythm got a little whacky last month, maybe or maybe not ADT related. Echo showed function is slightly diminished but still OK, however, Cardio-Oncology stepped in with more frequent testing but hasn't nixed cancer meds yet. We'll see...pretty sure I'd rather drop from heart failure than lay around with end stage cancer. Crystal ball would be nice to see which one's coming when.
