I'm 61 and learned I have APC on Oct 2. Gleason's a 10 ( so NOW I'm a 10!) PSA 16. Have 3 bone Mets. I'm going to Huntsman as I am in Utah. We are looking at docetaxel with adt for a 1-2 punch. Oncology team is very high on themselves es which gives me hope. Anyone have experience with Huntsman?

I'm seeing Agarwal, but your old oncologist is on my panel. I am hoping that they can get this down to manageable. I only hear good stuff about HCI which is why I'm headed there.
