Hi,
If it was me I would not do the Lupron and go with one of the newer ADT drugs like Orgovyx. Orgovyx is a daily pill form with better self control if you have reactions. You stop taking the pill. Lupron last several months so if you do have reactions you have to suffer for months. Just my humble non medical opinion.

@clevelandguy That's where my thinking is headed unless Gleason 4+5 is better treated with Lupron. I'm bummed out the urologist wants to do the Lupron so I have to wait to see him on 8/25 to discuss Orgovyx. I'm fairly certain this will require a debate. I don't see how I can do Lupron for 2 years and ever recover at my age.
