Confused about my Gleason and Grade (cribform)

Tests in regard to treatment
Hi Folks, After RP ~6 months ago with persistent PSA > .15, I've begun ADT using Orgovyx, and salvage pelvic RT. When should I expect that my RO will order testing, and for what? For example blood tests for PSA & testosterone.

https://healthunlocked.com/advanced-prostate-cancer/posts/149258815/better-options Dr Corn had all the testing done that my husband's doctors in nc couldn't bother with. Upshot..NC docs are " you have about 5 years to live, you have to stay on all these drugs even if they're ruining your life, etc "

another treatment decision.
prostatectomy 2011, salvage radiotherapy 2015. Psa levels undetectable since then but lots of late effect problems from the radiotherapy. Have had several urethral dilatations due to strictures and following the last one earlier this year my incontinence has increased . The Urologist has suggested

About Radiation After Radical Prostatectomy
Do Physicians only recommend radiation for non metastatic men? and only recently in Oligo metastatic patients? Do they use radiation as a tool to bring psa down in metastatic men? and or radiation is only used as palliative for bones and pain? My apologies, If I’m not processing this thoroughly

I finished Docetaxyl chemotherapy on 7th Septemb er last year so I've only been on Prostap with prednisolone since then. My onco says he will arrange urgent bone scan and full body

Apalutamide vs Abiraterone for Deep PSA Response in MHSPC patients
Salutations FPC'ers, New retrospective study from MD Anderson for ASCO 2023 evaluating the 2 ARPI drugs for deep PSA response in hormone sensitive patients.

Xtandi is failing
Details are in my profile. Overall I’ve had good but not remarkably long term PCa control from standard of care treatments. In July 2018 when first diagnosed with widespread multiple tumours, I needed to turn things around in a hurry. Zoladex and docetaxel initially delivered a nadir of 0.06. I

Cyberknife For Periaortic Lymph Nodes
I’m going to be starting RT in September for my prostate and pelvic LN mets (2). My RO doesn’t want to use EBRT on my periaortic LN mets (2), he feels like they’re to near organs. I’m thinking of Cyberknife for those mets. I’ve had chemo and I’m on Lupron and Nubeqa. My last PSA was 0.055. I’m feeling

Any coming back from this?
Here’s a summary of my father’s situation since he was diagnosed last year in May 2022. I used all of his clinical reports to create this, but you can see my previous posts as well. He’s only 60 years old today - 59 at the time of diagnosis. May 2022: Diagnosed with high burden prostate cancer (Gleason

4k before targeted biopsy?
When my PSA went up to 7 my Urologist did a biopsy. No fun. Found a spot that was analyzed as pre-cancerous. 6 months later PSa is 11 and wants a directed biopsy. I did the MRI to prepare but life got in the way for 5 months. I found out about a 4k test that might show the presence of cancer. If I did
