Weight gain after Prostatectomy

Report postWeight gain after Prostatectomy
My husband had a prostatectomy in December and his PSA is still going up. Gleason score of 9. Radiation will start soon. He is not on ADT as yet, but his weight has ballooned in recent months. There has been no change to his activities for eating and we are bamboozled. His legs are very tired and sore also. Is this a common occurrence?
