being without testosterone after a lifetime with it is quite a change. you have already had Lupron so you probably know already. for me there were no side effects form IMRT or brachy. i took PSP mushroom extract supplements which might have helped. side effects from Lupron include: muscle weakness, dizziness, orthostatic hypotension, hot flashes and others. be careful doing things like climbing ladders or anything else that requires attention.
