Prostate Cancer: Which Treatment to Choose?

ADT's are used to slow and/or stop the cancer rate of development. Once that is accomplished the cancer can be dealt with. There are many treatments available. For my Gleason 10 I chose Proton Beam. Proton Beam can very precisely target what needs to be dealt with. The treatment itself is absolutely painless and a piece-of-cake. No anesthesia at all is necessary. My testosterone is now undetectable. But I am dealing with the after effects of Lupron. You being active and strong should minimize the Lupron after effects. I wish you best of luck realizing that luck has little to do with this.

If you dont mind my asking. How did you locate the cancer after ADT shrunk the tumor?
Dont mind me. I am just another layman trying to understand the whole thing.
