This is how I feel with widespread bone metastasis to my bones. however with degarelix ,abiraterone and denosumab for bone strength I now go through life as I did before. but for how long ? My baseline psa a year ago was 1316 with de novo prostate cancer I am now almost 72 and this was the first psa test i ever had, digital exams always indicated a small prostate . If only I had regular psa tests may be they would found this cancer sooner .I now encourage all my male friends and family to insist on this valuable test . My psa is now .014 for that I am gratefull.
