Some good news for me.

Finished my 28 rounds of IGRT In March this year. My PSA had started to creep up again so my MO and RO suggested this treatment. I previously had chemo in 2016 and since then been using Lupron and Zytiga as my regular regime. I was please to see my Blood tests come back today with a PSA down to 0.1. The last time it was this low was 2017. My original PSA when diagnosed was 212. It’s been a rollercoaster and I will enjoy this good news but also realistic of the continued battle ahead.

Generally feeling great but the muscle wastage is noticeable now and fatigue is normal.

Cheers

Dermot.
