Hi Kevin, that is quite a chart! Did you put that together or is that a standard chart maintained by your care team?

I put it together and keep it updated.

It's useful when my medical team and I discuss treatment decisions, especially when new team members come on board.

As an example, new oncologist talked about SBRT combined with 24 months of Orgovyx and Xtandi as an attempt at a cure. We went over my chart together and he said, ok, no, let's manage this as a chronic disease with treatments for defined periods, criteria to stop, actively monitor while off treatment and criteria to go back on..

Exactly I said, it's clear from my clinical history looking at this chart that we are unlikely to cure it. His response, yeah, seeing your clinical history in a single chart makes it clear.
