Hello, last year I had a radical prostatectomy, 33 external beam therapy sessions, and slow release ADT injections for 9 months - my previous Gleason 10 score is now down to 0.04 finally. I have been experiencing lots of side effects from the hormones - brain fog, dizziness, lack of energy, extreme mood volatility, sleeplessness, anxiety, frequent hot flushes etc. There is a new oncologist in town who is recommending another 9 months of ADT injections for me as the latest research apparently says that the 18 month course has much better results - this sounds like a very long time of further suffering for me, potential with no better outcomes. The previous oncologist was suggesting only 9 months of hormones, which I believe is common practice. So my question is: has anyone had such a long 18 month ADT treatment, or heard about this duration being common practice? Will really appreciate your help with this, thank you so much.
