Hi Mike,
I've been two years on Abiraterone (I'm off it now), the main side effects for me were significant fatigue and brain-fog. I needed several naps a day to keep me going. I recommend doing resistance training (weight lifting) to combat the muscle loss. It's a harsh treatment but incredibly effective.
Hope this helps
