Hello All: I'm 67, Dx in 2-17 with stage 4 PCa, 1 bone met. In 6-16, PSA was at 10, Ratio of free T to total was 0.12, so my urologist recommended TRUS biopsy. Friends had told me it had been painful. so I researched heavily. Also, my urologist was associated with the local hospital, not a recognized

My Father's Journey / Interest in High Dose Testoserone
Hi guys, I would like to share with you the journey that we have undergone through my Father’s PCa. My Father is 78, is asymptotic and still works everyday running his business. Even way back in 2002 my Father’s PSA was 19, but biopsies were always negative as were scans. Although we can assume

Lupron and antiandrogen monotherapy to avoid castrate resistant pc and increase survival and better quality of life

Medicare B not covering Keytruda
Greetings, I haven't posted before, but have been impressed by the courage and care shown by so many of you. I was diagnosed in 2007 (yeah, ten years ago) and had a robotic prostatectomy that November - they almost got it all. Gleason 5+4=9. Since then, I have failed salvage radiation, ADT, Casodex

IMAGING TO STAGE
Finished 44 treatments over 78 days. Hormone Lupron and Casodex. Gleason 6/7 with lymph node found on 3 tesla MRI. CT guided biopsy of node positive. So Stage III. 80 Centigray to prostate external beam and 60 to lymph node. PSA was only 7-8 pre treatment. Had I not had the MRI, I would be Stage IIb.

Should I Pay for Enzalutamide
I started ADT in May (my PSA had risen to 7.5 after IMRT in 2016). Unfortunately I am in the small group of me who have 'primary ADT resistance' and my PSA is now 21 after 6 months of ADT. Not a good look! I am seeing MO next week, chemo is likely. In the meantime, urologist has added Casodex to my

The War on Cancer, & Stem-like Cancer Cells.
New curcumin paper below [1]. It's been 46 years since Richard Nixon declared war on cancer. Each October, an enormous amount of money is collected for breast cancer-related purposes. Not all goes to BCa research, but a lot does. (Too bad about the other 'hormonal' cancers - ovarian, cervical, endometrial

Laetrile /Vitamin B17 as one protocol to use with other protocols to fight prostate cancer
I have seen trials that are being used where they hit it hard with combinations of anti-cancer drugs, I using B17 as one of my protocols for fighting my cancer also with Hormone therapy ,casodex radiation and cannabis oil.
