I have bone mets and have been on ADT 2 years now. Many of us have <0.01....
I forgot to mention I was on half dose zytiga for awhile and have been on 3/4 dose for over a year. Those are options too as Union98 points out....

I retired today. I was tired yesterday and retired again today. Dang ADT. Best of luck Prato. Enjoy Florida and retirement....
Great advice to get the shot now. Most of us are being treated with heavy ADT meds and our immune system ain't what it used to be. Don't wait til "after winter". Per Nike, just do it....
