I am thankful for above comments when coming off of treatment. My husband wants to stop and take a break from it but Dr concerned it will return especially since the ductal prostate cancer hides itself. Your posts have told me not good to stop treatments. God Bless each one of you.

I don’t necessarily recommend that course. Coming off treatment and letting the poison leave the body for awhile has its benefits,quality of life,feeling better etc. Over treatment is a bad thing too. My plan is still to stay off treatment as long as I can. That’s also the only way to see if one-selves cancer might be in remission. Watch it closely and save the treatment for when it is really needed. I think family members can sometimes be selfish wanting to keep their loved ones as long as possible without looking at the quality of life the person is having. Respect the patients feelings. I hope you are able to both work through this for a mutual decision on treatments.
