This is Burnett1948. I didn’t get a chance to type my question. I had a 13x9 mm lymph node radiated with 25 rounds of radiation finishing in mid November 2018. My 2018December 28 PSA was 2.2 down from 2.9. My question is how long does it take for Radiation to work to its maximum effect?I hope my PSA comes down further?

Just a lymph node? No treatment to your prostate? No ADT? What was you diagnosis/Gleason score?
