Three-Year Anniversary

Three years on ADT only. Lupron and abiraterone + prednisone. PSA staying low and MRI shows cervical neck tumor hasn’t grown and maybe shrank. Even with not-much-fun ADT side effects, I feel blessed.

Off topic, but, I played Rod Stewart over and over, especially Maggie May ("The morning sun, when it's in your face, really shows your age"), in the 1970s.

Maybe I missed somebody else pointing it out but Rod Stewart is one of us. Wish more celebs would go public.

Can't share the enthusiasm for Rod, Clapton man myself!

I have been on same meds for just a year now and so far following same trend of PSA. Metastases in various places which appear to be staying the same.

Thank you for your positive news, I look forward to being 3 years on (as you say, despite the annoying side effects - just off for a hot flush!)

Picture of my stock portfolio.......... Congrats anyway and I would think that cervical neck issue is from bending your head back when you down a few....or from forgetting to change gears in your head..... You'll be just fine...

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.
