69 you prostate patient. PSA 42 Gleason 4+5=9 pre treatment.

Treatment: Hormone, Effexor (Lupron) then 40 cycles radiation. No surgery.

Current PSA 0.0xx. Prognosis good. Still have about 8 months Effoxor.

The hot flashes are real nuisance and lack of Testosterone zaps my energy and leads to depression.

It's all a bump in the road. I'm getting better.
