Well, my PSAs have started rising. I have one more late next week. In the past, Lupron/Casodex has successful knocked the snot out of my PSA's. Dr. Lam has suggested that I do Orgovyx next time. I have a video chat with him on the 16th. Barring a pleasant PSA surprise I will need to start it PDQ*!!

Soooo... if you have some experience/knowledge about ORGOVYX, can you please share it?

* There used to be a group that toured, PDQ BACH. It stood for Pretty Damn Quickly Bach. Very enjoyable concerts. Very clever & very funny ranging from satiric to slapstick.

Orgovyx worked well for me...it is the only choice if you want to go the antagonist ADT route and not be subjected to those painful monthly shots to the abdomen. The pills are easy...and no more monthly appointments followed by 3 days of pain.
