I was finished with mt radiation treatments on September 20th… At that time my PSA number, which should be lower than 6.5 was down from 11 to 0.18. This was a very good result. I had all of the listed side effects but none of them were very severe. They are gradually disappearing. I have shifted to hormone and steroid meds. The odd side effect for the hormone medication is hot flashes.

Evidently, I have reduced my PSA number but I am now going through menopause…
