@heavyphil IMRT (I think) to the prostate itself in 2022. Steep rise in PSA six months ago (suddenly from 1.0-1.5 to 5.9) prompted a treatment plan for the metastasis. After PET, CT, and MRI I began on ADT. Two lymph nodes were believed to be involved. Radiation was imminent, until the original RO's machine broke down. I went to a new, more skeptical and less hasty RO at Johns Hopkins, who had a new CT and MRI done, and now the biopsy. This has positively identified the left SV (NOT a left lymph node). Looking forward to the better aim, I believe I've dodged a bullet to my rectum.
