@mjp0512 - From what I have seen and heard (not personal experience). You got that backwards. Most PC is slow growing (but not sure your situation), Colon Cancer will take you quickly.

@briang1958 - Normally, I would wholly agree with you and would offer the same advice. However, after 9 months of Orgovyx/Nubeqa and an IMRT cycle, my PSA went from 0.19 in Aug, to 0.23 in Dec, to 8.80 last week. I guess "slow growing" is for other people. Doubling time of 1.2 months is no bueno. Since chemo looks like it's coming on pretty soon, I'll let it whack whatever other cancer there is too. No need to go looking for something else to think about. Just my opinion and my case, of course.
