My Experience. When I first found out I wes scard sh..less. I read a lot and spent lots of time on discussion groups. I had a second opinion on my biopsy and it was downgraded. So make sure you get a second opinion from a reputable place. Had a PSMA that came back woth no spread outside the prostate. Orgovyx thus far 1 1/2 months in is very good. I'm 74 with Medicare/BC plan 65 and BC RX. My copay is just $15. I have had a few minor hot flashes lasting only seconds. Barely noticeable.
Helpful information might be that I'm Gleason 3+3 and 3+4 in two cores. I take .5 mg of Lexapro, B Complex and Vitamin D daily. I walk my dog about two miles per day and play tennis at least 3 times a week. So far I have not had to slow anything down.
Space Oar and fiducials put in this week. Very uncomfortable for 36 hours but then took my normal walk. Mold and CT simulation next week then on to SBRT a few weeks later.
The hardest part for me became the waiting. Even now, I can get specific dates for the SBRT. This makes it difficult to create a plan for where we will live during the process.
Hope this helps a bit.
