Zolodex is an antigen suppressor that is used for people who have had breast cancer or prostate cancer. It keeps testosterone from developing in men and estrogen in women. It is injected in the abdomen. Tony's doc started the therapy because his PSA went up and even tho they didn't have any evidence that it had returned, he wanted to be absolutely sure. Unfortunately it causes exhaustion in nearly every man, intestinal problems (diarrhea and constipation), dizziness, depression, anxiety and a lot of other side effects in some of them. His urologist has decided to take him off it but the present 12 week shot is still in effect. I think the doc wants to make sure he's okay before he takes him off it. That's about all I know and that's from bits and pieces as the situation has developed. I'm okay with having something to eat before the meeting. I think we should be able to get back by 3.
