I have had 4 injections prior to proton therapy (same as radiation but less side effects). Anyone any experience once the dose has stopped? My last injection was 7 weeks ago.

Is this to treat prostate cancer, rather than problems with BPH?

It was for moderate grade Prostate Cancer (gleason grade 7 4/3) in order to shrink it and reduce testosterone. 4 injections over 4 months and then I had the proton therapy just after the last dose. I've had more side effects from the hormone than the PT so far, so interested in how people have managed and anything that can get me back to "normal" quicker.
