I completed HoLEP procedure a week ago. I was diagnosed 2019 with Gleason 4+4 prostate cancer and started Lupron ADT treatment. After 9 months side effects were to much and stopped.
Changed doctor and health plan 2021 and back on Lupron. Then April added Apalutimide (Erleada). 4 months later develpode serious rash on arms, back, and shoulders. Stopped Erleada and 2 weeks rash cleared up. HoLEP last week tissue analysis tested negative for prostate cancer!!!
What? Doing followup with my urology oncologist to find what it means. Meanwhile HoLEP a big success and worth it. Very low risk and worth it to get back normal uribnary behavior. Now will sleep through the night. I recommend it for sure.
