Recurrence with undetectable PSA?
Treatment was 79 Gys
IMRT
/IGRT plus 3 years of ADT (Firmagon). My PSA went undetectable in 11/09 and has remained so ever since (<0.015 in 2/16). Even though I stopped ADT in 2/12, I have remained castrate (so much for a hormone holiday!) T =13 ng/dl in 2/16.

My Intro - Ned in St Louis
At same time had
IMRT
(radiation), with 37 treatments. Have had 2 bone scans along the way - both were negative (they were probably premature, but my urologist at the time was just doing what he knew to do probably).

My Intro...
Started with
IMRT
and Lupron for two years. Side effects were not too bad for either. Glad to stop Lupron though. For 4 years after D/C of Lupron; PSA stayed low, below 1.0.

Low PSA with a Gleason 8 diagnosis
I began Radiation therapy (RT) in April, 2009, which consisted of 25 sessions of intensity-modulated RT (
IMRT
) pus 17 sessions of image-guided RT (IGRT), for a total of 79 Grays of radiation. The Vantas did not decrease my testosterone sufficiently, so I went back on Casodex.
