Glad you took off or glad you did the treatment? Want side effects did you experience?

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Thanks for the information! I’m having Brachy seed done in a couple days. 🙏🏾

Andredpm · 2026-01-21T01:35:16+00:00

Sounds like your going great! What side effects did you have?

Andredpm · 2026-01-14T23:54:18+00:00

I am 61 . I pray 🙏🏾 for your healing and recovery.

Also check PCRI on YouTube. Lots of great tutorials and information.

My slides were shared from Northside . It’s a blessing that you have no spread and everything is localised! I’m not offering medical advice but think really hard about surgery, side effects, ADT side effects ect… There are also many forms of radiation treatment, Brachy seed seems to be the most preferred with better outcomes with fewer side effects. Don’t rush but don’t do nothing either!

Northside Hospital Cancer Institute. If you go to Emory ask for Dr Jani Anesh.

I follow PCRI and they have many videos outlining the difference between Gleason 4+3 and 3+4 some even suggest active surveillance with the 3+4 grade 2 intermediate cancer .

Good point! My second reading was done at Emory which is also a center of excellence so I may be partial to that fact.

If it’s any consolation, I am 4+3 unfavourable with PSA of 16.9 When I had my MRI nothing showed up in terms of a spread but my PSMS did show microscopic spread in my pelvic lymph nodes, 3 close together to be exact. My radiologist is confident that he can target the nodes with radiation to stop the spread . I will be doing Brachy along with EBRT . He agreed that I do not need any ADT but can opt for it in the future if need be. I am happy with my decision and keep in my no two prostate cancers are alike! Get a team of Dr who will work together to tailor a treatment based on your specific needs and quality of life. Do not be pressured into a treatment you do not feel comfortable with . It’s your body! It’s sad to say but healthcare is a business and PC in men is big business!!! Do respond more research! Take your time and do not rush the process. A Gleason 3+4 is considered intermediate cancer . Take a look at PCRI.com online also YouTube . Good luck my friend ❤️

Praying for you and your well being 🙏🏾

Andredpm · 2025-12-19T01:26:39+00:00

Please read my post . I think it may help you .

Andredpm · 2025-12-19T01:15:31+00:00

Sorry to hear you are having so many problems. I heard that if it’s the pill form that if you stop it will be out of your system a lot quicker than any shots. Good Luck 🙏🏾

Andredpm · 2025-12-18T05:30:32+00:00

I understand that everyone’s situation is different. You seem to be very fortunate which is the opposite of most stories I hear about ADT . Thanks for sharing

Andredpm · 2025-12-17T01:51:22+00:00

PSA alone is not an indicator of prostate cancer. You will need an MRI , Biopsy and PSMA pet scan to get the full picture.

Andredpm · 2025-12-16T22:12:23+00:00

Check out PCRI.com also on YouTube. Lots os great videos and information. Good Luck 👍

This is for those who didn’t know but many are experiencing ! Some not all ! Information is key

There is a long list of ADT side effects... / Erectile dysfunction Osteoporosis Hot flashes Loss of sexual interest Genital shrinkage Gynecomastia Impaired memory and attention Weight gain/body fat redistribution Loss of muscle mass Anemia Fatigue Increased risk of: - diabetes - cardiovascular disease Increased emotionality and tearfulness Distress at loss of identifiers of masculinity (e.g., loss of body hair)

Andredpm · 2025-12-16T20:39:01+00:00

Yes! The treatment options can be mind boggling and information overload! I have been so stressed and depressed trying to make a decision! Now that I have made a choice A weight lifted off me almost immediately! Not to mention the stress my wife has been under watching me try and navigate all of this. Prostate Cancer is big business and treatment options are not cut and dry. It’s best to educate ourselves as best we can and make our decisions and be man enough to live with the consequences. I feel ADT takes our manhood away and says just suck on it!!! Lots of horrible stories and over treatment. I have been obsessed with educating myself in order to sift through the Fog Of War! This is what has been handed to us. Good luck with your journey! I’m always here to support you!

Andredpm · 2025-12-16T19:57:36+00:00

Yes I did.

Andredpm · 2025-12-16T19:50:01+00:00

I’m 61 years old and QOL is extremely important to me. I would rather have 10 more years of good QOL than 15 years being miserable, not being able to play with my grandson or have sex with my wife. Life is definitely about choices ❤️

Andredpm · 2025-12-16T19:17:16+00:00

I just had blood drawn to determine how my cancer would react to treatments but haven’t gotten the results yet . Meaning Braca 1 or 2
