I am the wife of a husband who has advanced prostate cancer. He has just finished 6 rounds of Taxotere chemotherapy. He has taken Orgovyx and Nubeqa since his diagnosis. I am exploring holistic adjunctive therapy for him.

Pickle juice helped with the muscle aches, cramping. Once 6 treatments are complete, takes about 4-6 weeks to get your energy back. Not sure of any other holistic adjuncts.

I’ve been on the triplet therapy regimen for about 2 years with great success thus far. A resource I’ve found to be particularly helpful is a book titled “Cured” by Jeffrey Rediger, M.D. Best of luck to you and you husband!

This site is an incredible resource for information! Feel free to ask questions...and don't forget the search function if there is something specific you're trying to get more information on. There are so many great discussions, feedback on various options etc etc. I'm sorry your husband had to be part of this club, but you aren't alone here. Best wishes to him and you on your journey!

In solidarity,
