After a long time low, my PSA started doubling and a PSMA PET located a small lesion in my sternum. I was put on Enzalutamide. At my 3 month review, about 2 weeks ago I met with my oncologist and CNS. Their first suggestion was to continue with Enzalutamide until that fails and then revert to plan B. We had a very long discussion as I felt we hadn’t explored all other options. Today I had a second opinion from another oncologist and we discussed SABR to the single lesion which she felt to be a very valid option. This should allow me to drop the Enzalutamide (to be restarted later when needed). I have a meeting with my own oncologist again on 3 Jan to confirm this option but it is exactly what I was hoping would be the outcome. In my simple non medical terms, with a little knowledge I think this has bought me more time. I’m a happy boy!. Best wishes to you all and Happy Christmas. David
