Atta boy! Let it remain low...
remember zytiga is temporary not permanent. maybe get a couple of years. my testosterone is 3 but psa is 47. your goal is live as long as possible and try all treatments because there is no cure at this time

My goal is to ride this success as long as possible ... but nice to meet ya
Charles' comment may be a valid statistic for Zytiga; however, a personal anecdote from me is very tempting: I was diagnosed in 2012, G8, stage 4 with 2 mets to the pelvic bone and one left pelvic lymph nodule. I am on Lupron and still hormone sensitive with low PSAs. I have never needed Zytiga. My MO and my urologist have both seen me in the last month and told me to have a great summer. So Charles can be a Voice of Doom, but have a GREAT SUMMER! (Full Disclosure: I take 14 scoops of IP-6 daily in two divided doses on an empty stomach mixed vigorously in very cold water.)
Such a great feeling to see those numbers go down and validate you treatment choice.
Mazel tov, that’s great.
How kind .. thanks
A really great report! Thanks for posting!
