@jeffmarc We doctor at Mayo la crosse who works in tandem with rochester. I'm told they have morning meetings to discuss the patient case lineup for the day.
We see our PA on Monday and will question of option of getting back on lupron and adding a Nubequa (due to past bypass surgery.) Also read that not all cancer cells produce PSMA, therefore an older generation of PET may be needed. Knowing our PA, she is NOT going to recommend wait and see. Thanks for your expert advice!

Good to hear you’re working with a great center of excellence. It’s very important when cancer comes back.

Please do come back here and tell us what the doctor recommended.

You have a very high doubling rate. Getting that treated soon is going to be important.

Just putting you on an ADT plus an ARPI may be enough for a while. I would want Orgovyx and Darolutamide. People that have had Orgovyx Get their testosterone back quicker and some have fewer side effects. Nubeqa Has no side effects for most people. It really works well for me. It has been found that Lupron causes plaque to build up in your arteries.

There are multiple different radiation types they could pick
SBRT followed by IMRT.
Brachytherapy Before or after IMRT or SBRT.
SBRT alone
Even more
