Been on Lupron, Casodex, Avodart forever. MO Appt tomorrow here in NJ. No discernible Covid 19 symptoms; T=97.5-98.5F! Do I go or postpone? (84, GS6, T2B in 1997, Pd+XBRT,recurred in 2001. Current psa on hormones: 0.4!; hi bp, triple bypass in '17). They say they will "screen", whatever that means.

What is the purpose of your visit?

From my viewpoint: to get the Lupron shot ontime; for his? maybe to check status and, theoretically, make any changes in treatment (like a move from Casodex to Zytiga).

Good idea to get your shot ontime.

Of course. Take the injection. Update status. And enjoy life.

Thanks for responses. I got my Lupron shot. Actually did discuss with MO, he noted that all but chemo and lupron patients had been postponed.
