Right now I am pretty stable with a .14 PSA but am still young 66. I had a bone scan but no PET scan. I am probably ok for a couple of years and only doing active surveillance by PSA test

I am 14 years younger than you. I had proton therapy about three years ago and six months of Lupron treatment. Lupron destroyed me I could barely walk and it was a challenge finding the energy to get out of bed..
All the drugs you quoted work by lowering your testosterone. Some day I may have no choice but ADT but that is the day I start shopping for a Nursing Home.
