My MO--whom I trust--has recommended Pluvicto as my "next best step", after 6 cycles of docetaxel didn't knock down my cancer growth. I was OK with her rec until today, when I had the consult with the nuclear medicine doc. He says they strictly follow the procedure in the VISION study and he hasn't
