Nice collection. I have a 2009 Z06. I hate Lupron. I do not want to go back on it (quality of life issues), also what happens when the cancer becomes castrate resistant? Tom...
Stop worrying. You're on top of it so you'll catch it early if you have it. When caught early it's quite curable. Problem occurs when you're a dummy like me and don't go to doctor for 20 years....
I did a year of ADT along with about 25 radiation sessions then brachy boost. So far so good. I think this would be a good choice for intermediate or high risk. Tom...
Sorry to hear about your situation. Feeling defeated is natural. Just deal with the situation and move on. My PSA has been down but I don't believe I'm cured. It may come back. Your idea of cutting...
Sounds like you're in a similar situation to me. Lack of bone mets is good news. They hit my prostate and lymph nodes with radiation. Then went brachy boost. Also was on ADT for a year. Now it's wait...
Be sure to eat healthy and exercise and you won't need a supplement. Technically vitamins don't contain calories so they don't provide energy and some can be toxic in large doses. Best to get them...
I did the triple play 18 months ago. So far I'm impressed with the results. Tom...
Thanks Tall Allen!...
My father in law is in his 80's and they want to do surgery on him. His prostate is enlarged but it is not cancerous. He's having difficulty urinating. Would ADT shrink a non cancerous enlarged...
Last Lupron shot was one year ago. I was on it for one year. I took myself off it. So far PSA has stayed down. Last test showed 0.4. Took me about 4 months to loose the 20 pounds I'd gained. I...
They had me talk to 2 urologists and a radiation oncologist. I decided to go with radiation, ADT and brachy boost. I did not want to be cut and I'm self employed so I could not afford the downtime....
If you like black tea I would continue to enjoy it in moderation. I've eaten healthy and exercised my whole life and I still got prostate cancer. Tom...
IGRT wasn't bad at all. Hardest part was timing water intake so my bladder was full without being painful....
Everything in moderation. Walsh has some good diet guidelines in his book. Main factors in prostate cancer are age and being male. Tom...
Not sure I will ever stop working. I chose radiation since I'm self employed and don't get sick days. I think staying busy is important especially with PC. Hang in there....
