General health (also not bad for PC): a fasting-mimicking diet reduce insulin resistance, liver fat, immune system aging, and biological age
I applied that during chemo, starting 72 hours before and ending 48 hours after the chemo infusion, there are clinical trials also using it in combination with chemo, the principle is, in a nutshell, when you are fasting healthy cells go in "hibernation" while cancer cells cannot do that, so the chemo

Looking for Hope
My dad had his second Pluvicto treatment yesterday. His PSA is still rising. The doctor at University of Chicago is not happy with his bloodwork. He may try something else. Before Pluvicto he had Docetaxel and his PSA rose right after he stopped chemo. He also had target radiation that did nothing either

Update on FIL -Venetoclax as a Monotherapy, Pancytopenia and Myelodysplasia
Hi everyone I have been meaning to post an update for months but things have been changing so rapidly, every day would have been a different story. So we did get to see a specialist who did a BM biopsy and recommended Venetoclax as a Monotherapy as his BM was 50% CLL. We were told it wasn't chemo
