Active Surveillance Post-Treatment

December 2018 I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer metastasis in bones and lymph nodes I went to my primary doctor for my annual physical no idea my PSA levels were extremely high. No symptoms just a little tired from working 50 to 60 hours per week.

PSA over 5000

Found out from my primary I needed to see a urologist went and had another PSA test by now my PSA was at over 5000! Emergency biopsy was performed found out the cancer had spread to my bones and lymph nodes and I found an oncologist in my area immediately started chemo and Lupron 6 treatments later finished and rang the bell! Now I have a bone scan coming up and see what happens next.

Changes in lifestyle, and in PSA

I am doing well, I completely changed my diet and drink alkaline water and green tea and fresh carrot and celery juice and a ton of fruit and vegetables and legumes and for the peace of mind I use cannabis and THC for minor pain or discomfort. My last PSA test was 2.75 I believe I am a walking miracle.
