I just finished my quarterly checkup and am leaving the hospital with a smile. My PSA remains undetectable, and I’m thrilled to see improvements across all my blood levels—higher red blood cells, more hemoglobin, lower cholesterol, and alkaline phosphatase (AP) down to 79. I’ve made slight adjustments to my diet and exercise routine, though it’s hard to say exactly what’s making the difference. But the results speak for themselves, and that’s worth celebrating.
Last Saturday, I also completed a challenging 15 km trekking run. Looking back at my diagnosis seven years ago, I never would have imagined this. However, I never lost hope or confidence. I’ve worked closely with my doctors, focusing on diet, exercise, and mindfulness. Now, I approach each day as a gift. To all the warriors out there, I’m sending my very best.

Fantastic. You had that VERY high PSA of 2000+and yet no metastases were detected at that time? I looked at your bio, and didn't see any mention of initial metastasis.
Yes, you are right. In 2017 PSMA Pet wasn’t available, on CT and bone scan I’ve had no metastasis even with a very large tumor which was already very close to my bladder. In 2021 with PSMA Pet scan some lymph node metastasis showed up in the pelvis, 2-3. I did whole pelvis radiation with IMRT/VMAT plus prostate bed and two more years of ADT. Since then my PSA is undetectable. I think, it was right in 2017 to tackle cancer with RP, Taxotere and Lupron plus my complete lifestyle change (no stress, plant based diet plus fish, heavy exercising, meditation).
What great news to share. And, on that note. I regularly posted good news about my father during his continuous "loving life" crusade of activity and passion while he was still alive.
He lived for 17 years with pc, and lived a VERY full life.
He passed last year peacefully at 88. We were truly blessed that he was so optimistic, and strong and took his health, activity levels, nutrition and mindset to the highest level - and never "identified" as a cancer patient.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful and uplifting message—it truly replenishes my spirit and gives me even more strength. What you shared about your father deeply resonates with my own journey. When I was first diagnosed, even the idea of another year seemed distant and uncertain. Now, I set my sights on 88 and beyond, with a dream to one day run past 100. Only the universe knows what lies ahead, and may it continue to bless you as well.
