Hi again, re: Cannabis/THC use for PC
Have there been any studies linking cannabis/THC to curative effects for PC or lowering
PSA
? Or is it just used for pain relief? Any studies on proven benefits beyond pain relief? Thanks so much. Ran across this study: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articl...

Bring PSA from 6.7 to 3.1 in 4 weeks by pure water fast (3wks) and vegan diet (1 wk).
After 14 days I got my first
PSA
and blood test. After 28 days I had my second
PSA
After two weeks I got the results from my first blood test and
PSA
test. The
PSA
had dropped from 6.7 to 3.8! I was delighted!

Q & A with my husband's MO
That plus a steep rise in his
PSA
and the start of chemo really soon have us in a sober state of mind. Continuing to lean on Jesus for strength. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wXoa3LDjRUyZ4dE9wLJQAg32jRcEISF4v3KeSOT83gg/edit?usp=sharing

Supplements and self-care
My
PSA
was 108. I started on Firmagon and my
PSA
kept rising up to 134 and my alkaline phosphatase was almost 350. After that first month I was switched to Lupron, which brought my
PSA
down to 53.

Aspirin trials
Good result so far with
PSA
at <0.01. Met with my Oncologist today and he said there were trials using aspirin as a potential drug to reduce potential recurrence.

Lupron Question.
Psa
was 19 in Sept and dropped to 1.26 as of Jan. 11 2024. Since going on Abi when I get a monthly Lupron shot I have trouble sleeping that first night and mild flu like symptoms the next day. I have agreed to try the 3 month injection but am concerned the immediate se’s may be worse.

Unexpected early end to ADT
Orgovyx has kept my
PSA
at <.05 UNDETECTABLE for all of the 14 months, with mostly tolerable side effects. Muscle loss, fatigue, brain fog and hot flashes. At this point with only a four month window, I am not willing to move over to Lupron or the like for fear of it causing more harm than good.

Can we trust AI analysis?
The first chose no ADT with radiation and the second chose 12 months of ADT after surgery and follow up radiation after
PSA
rise. I guess only time and luck will tell if that was the correct decision for each of us.

Next steps after cabazitaxel
PSA
has fallen from 83 in early July at the start to 5.1 a couple of weeks ago (after five treatments). I live in Nicosia, Cyprus, and am being treated here but I'm also a Mayo patient of Drs. Kwon and Orme. They have identified me as a candidate for Olaparib, based on genetic tests.

Castration resistant in just a year? Normal or not? Provenge in my future.
PSA
tripled in the last 30 days (but still extremely low), after doubling in the prior 3 months. I was diagnosed with stage 4b (mets in multiple bones and nodes) ductal and started ADT 13 months ago. Nubeqa and Docetaxel (Triplet therapy) started 9 months ago, and finished chemo 4.5 months ago.
