Well the battle has begun. Have been on Casodex for two weeks. PSA dropped from 10.2 to 5.8 in that time. Had first Lupron shot yesterday.. IMRT will begin 2nd week in June. 40 treatments at Neb. Med Center.

Thanks for all the good information and support. Will keep posting on the progress.

Congrats on your decision young man! Yours was not as easy as mine and I have no regrets. Drink plenty of water before each session and get some exercise each day; it will help combat the fatigue that eventually you will start to feel. Hormones affects each man differently but when you are done you will appreciate each sunrise more...All the best to you.
