fantastic results. Congrats.

Hoping to have similar results in May going for SBRT.

Any side effects from SBRT?

Thank you. "Executive Summary" is no side effects. But please go to my profile and look at my posts.

Stay Strong Brother, we got this.

Thank a million.

Trying to figure out how much time of work from home to carve out for myself. Mgmt is very supportive but I don’t want to say a week or two after 5 treatments and then need a month.

Good to hear you’ve experienced only minor discomfort after treatments.

I had minimal fatigue after treatment one. I walked 3 miles immediately after 2-5, and went on a two week SCUBA trip two weeks after my final treatment. Take the day of treatment off and if you respond as well as I did you will be fin.

1 month after Orgovyx and SBRT, my PSA is down to 0.2 and T = 89. Hoping to reach PSA < 0.1 in another month. T is a little high at this point, but if the PSA continues to drop, then I'm happy.

I am noticing some significant leg weakness, especially in the morning; and some fatigue in the evening, but no hot flashes (I'm also taking estradiol gel).

Yes! I'm very pleased with the PSA dropping so fast. Hopefully, it will stay there after 6 months on Orgovyx.

Have you reached a nadir for your PSA?

With Orgovyx I was at 0.09 post SBRT. One month after Orgovyx it was 0.19. Next test is in October. As you know the nadir can take quite a while to be achieved.

Not what you're looking for?
