PSA still going up

I guess I’m on de facto AS until I decide what treatment if any. Got my PSA results today and it went up from 6 to high 7’s in three months, dang it. Was hoping a diet change, more excercise and magical supplements would slow it down. Hoping for better news on the Oncotype DX. Ordered CBD tinture, maybe that will help.

PSA kinetics haven't been found to be a useful indicator of progression.

Lots of men have tried CBD and cannabis oil. It has no effect on prostate cancer.

Have you had a multiparametric prostate MRI ? That or a 20+ core template biopsy are the most accurate ways of assessing the extent of your prostate cancer.

Are you taking IP6? , aka "phytate", "phytic acid", inositol hexaphosphate, etc.,

After 3 years of being a stage 4, metastatic PCa patient (Gl 8), I started taking IP6 and slammed my PSA. My urologist did not know about the supplement (I was on Eligard and Casodex only) and was very surprised by the number (0.1) and insisted on a DRE. He said in a surprised voice "I can't feel any nodules". In the first link to a healthunlocked post you will read about others' experiences.

CalBear74 mentions IP6 aka inositol which has been scientifically proven to stop prostate cancer spreading

Bicarbonate of soda is another super ingredient - by brushing your teeth with bicarbonate of soda you are alkalizing your body and cancer can't thrive in an alkaline environment

A daily glass of red grape juice is another thing to help keep cancer at bay

Cannibis s is good for IBS
