How are you feeling? Does your PSA go down with each administration of Lupron? My husband was turned away when he was referred for salvage radiation after surgery. I was hoping to ontact someone else who had had the radiation and was “cured” as a result. He did not have positive margins Wishing you well in this ugly fight. Jo

I’m having the normal lupron side effects but I feel good. My PSA drops under .1 when I’m on lupron. I would think radiation might help your husband if his PSA is rising. Is he being treated at the Mayo?
