Anyone had a full body scan when they have prostate cancer?

@jim18 His Gleason was 4+3. We don't have insurance, other than a health spending account and our national health care, I guess I just wish there was something more to show whether the treatment had had an impact. I look at him sometimes and wish I had x ray eyes.

@gkgdawg Your husband is in the wait phase of prostate cancer. The physical decline does not indicate any cancer progression since the abiraterone and prednisone are causing it. If the PSA significantly increases while on ADT that show a serious treatment failure. Since ADT makes any surviving cancer dormant you will only know how effective the treatment was after ADT ends.
