On orgovyx/xytiga 13months psa undectable after 3wks . Testosterone 10. Went to consult Dr Kwon he commented that the combo was”nicely aggressive “So he and my oncologist concurr on that.
Thanks very much for the reply! This was the first PSMA PET scan - I did have previous MRI Pelvis, CT Bone scans, which showed all clear. This latest PSMA PET scan was a shock. I'm sure the cancer was already there last summer when the standard Biopsi came back "all clear". When my PSA kept rising, they did a fusion biopsi which showed 3 Gleason 8 spots and 1 Gleason 7. My urologist didn't even mention Proton Therapy, only traditional Photon therapy together with HDR Brachy. He told a friend of mine some time ago that Proton therapy was hocus pocus. Lucky for me a friend told me about Proton - I contacted UFHPTI, read the books, and visited for a consult - and signed up. Thanks for your comments about the Antagonists and agonists. Makes sense. Good luck on your treatments at Mayo. Thanks, Tom
