Question:

I have been treated for prostate cancer aggressive at Mayo Clinic I had 26 treatments radiation. It's lowered my psa to 1; it was 10. Will that lower my comp?  I have 2 more lupron shots left and my oncologist says that will be the last ones.

I don't know what your final rating will be. When a Vietnam veteran is diagnosed with prostate cancer the rating climbs to 100% until you have treatment and the cancer is cured. Then the rating will fall to either 20%, 40% or 60% depending on your symptoms.
