My pathology after surgery was gleason eight tertiary five stage T3a. Doctor told me although negative margins, lymph nodes, and SV he said there was a high likelihood of micrometastasis.

My journey is also over 4 years. Prostatectomy. Two years undectable. Then biochemical recurrence. Radiation twice, prostate bed, and spine.. Pet scan showed innumerable metastases. PSA 64. Zoladex, PSA dropped to 3. Doxetaxal. PSA 1.41. Now Zytiga. I'm, and have always been without symptoms. Also taking vitamin D and calcium plus xgeva.

So congratulations.

Time for a happy dance........... Grab the first person you see, rip off their mask (and yours) and give them the biggest kiss you can dig up from the bottom of your soul...........

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

Like a sailer or soldier in New York at the end of WWII. Beautiful! ( And so unlike the end of ‘nam. Oops. Downer Dave, my bad.)
