The
unofficial report today from my PTI case manager is that the CT scan and MRI results from last week are just as problematic as the ultrasound was: that is, not at all. As soon as
the PTI doctor makes that conclusion official, he will issue a referral for the
next step: the ADT (androgen deprivation therapy) injection. I’ll be able to
get it in Tallahassee, saving me a trip to Jacksonville for a 5-minute
procedure.
After
that, while the drop in my testosterone is busy starving and weakening the
prostate cancer cells, all I have to do is wait two and a half months before my
next visit to Jacksonville in mid-May. That will be a two-day session of
preparation for the actual treatment—which will begin at about the end of May.
When
I get more exact dates, I’ll post them.
