Prostate cancer, zero T (testosterone), biking question

Couple months ago a TRUS biopsy yields a Gleason 9. Opted for bilateral orchiectomy for 95% reduction plus drug. Oncologly was going to contact but biking buddy told me about focal cryoablation. New 3D-prostate mapping biopsy yields Gleason 10. Cryo last Tuesday so still recovering but pretty sure no testosterone is starting to show its ugly head. very weak Always a balls to the walls rider but now lacking them I seem to be going thru the change.

Seriously wondering what anybody out there who has dealt with prostate cancer can tell me about things that might have helped in getting back on the bike with some strength. I will show my face at the LBS ride tomorrow via driving but hope to be back on the saddle next week.

Much appreciate the feedback.
