My RP was done in May, 2010 and my first PSA in August came in at 1.0. My doctor recommend that I start hormone therapy right away and I have started Casodex and will receive my first injection on 9/15. Has anyone had experience with these hormone drugs? Side affects of the injection? How was the injection? Thanks. PS: Going to Johns Hopkins for second opinion on treatment, but was afraid to wait to get an answer so agreed to start treatment.

    Hello:

    My doctor has recommended hormone treatment therapy and I am wondering how you are doing on it.
