Cancer History - Living w/Stage 4 Metastatic Prostate Cancer-

[@DaWorstBroadcastingNetwork]

I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer on Nov 8 2022 with metastasis to my pelvis lymph nodes, and bone. My Psa was 1024 yes thats correct 1024. They did a byopsy and I had a gleason score of 4+3=7. My Oncologist statred me on hormone therapy right away, gave me 2 shot in my abdomen area. 2 weeks ago I started taking 2 tablets of nubeqa in the morning and 2 in the evening. This week I will start 6 rounds of chemo. Im feeling pretty good. Sticking to a strick diet. My Psa last dropped to 53 still high but a stark difference from 1024. Thank you for sharing your story. 🙏

I was diagnosed over 3 years ago with stage 4 Gleason 8 and PSA OF 93 started out with 2 firmagon shots and then Lupron and 44 radiation treatments. After that my wife got me Into Mayo. When I started at Mayo they found a spot on my spine and did a targeted radiation. After that they found a spot on my rib and in a lymph node got those with cryo ablation after that they found 4 spots on my spine and I had 9 Chemo sessions to get rid of them. Was good for 6 months and then found a spot on my rib and had a targeted radiation for that. Going back to Mayo for my 3 month check beginning of February. It’s seems to be a never ending battle but as long as they can keep it at bay and at 68 I can still enjoy my life it’s worth the fight and they are always coming out with new treatments. Good luck to you on beating this disease.

So comforting to find other men in the same boat so we can share experiences and points of view. My journey started about 4 years ago as my PSA went from 4 to 7 to 11 to 14 and now 24. Two biopsies with negative results. Then an MRI guided biopsy that turned up positive for adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Going in for a PSMA Pet scan next week and then the Dr said he will recommend treatment after the results of the scan are in. CyperK radiation and hormone therapy is what the initial recommendation is. Gleason score 3+4 and two areas of 3+3. So far looks contained in the prostate.....hoping for results that confirm that. Stay strong gents we are all in this together. Age is 78.

[@larryseward1951]

Thank you for sharing Harry. Keep up the courage and good mood. You are not alone, we're walking a similar journey... My psa in late 2021 went up to 144! 😀 I accepted to receive a 3months injection of luteinizing hormone therapy for the 2nd time.... was not enthusiastic about it... I hate the side effects. I decided, never again these hormones in my body Instead, took decision to address my metabolic condition... - Managing inflammation level - Initial screening of bacteria, parasites and other infection might be useful, and treat accordingly... As well as sugar/carbs qty feeding inflammation. Also practice of restricted feeding window could further contribute - More plant-based and spiced diet... hotter chilli perpers (contain capsaicins), black peper, curcumin, turmeric, ginger, horseradish, etc... Minimal animal protein - Regular physical activity and/or exercises... but not too intense, for not triggering much inflammation. The goal is to give healthy part of the body the fitness advantage, with good oxygen! - Some of the supplements I use... Quercetine, Fisetine, Resveratrol, Curcumin, Vitamin D3, K2, C, some B's too, minerals, Magnesium, Zinc-bisglycinate, ... Sometimes at night, 2 to 3 hours before sleep I take some melatonin, 40 to 80 mgr - Regular visiting a sauna, for the heat and relaxing.... making sure to include the ice cold bath or shower part of it. Very energizing! These days, I do it just home... After hot shower, it's winter, I go out in the cold while drying myself with towel! :) Lately, I am thinking to start with hyperbaric oxygen therapy sessions! Doing most of the above, I am feeling fine since my last hormone therapy in nov. 2021. Diagnosed in sep.2019 My next adventure in this journey is to do serious prolonged fasting. Last month I tried a two days dry fasting, it felt easier than I though, thus very doable! Dry fast seems easier than the wet version. But to stay on the safer side, would be good not to exceed three days... For those interested in dry fasting stuff, the channel "The Phoenix Protocol" has some good information about this subject. Author of a book with same title. The two most important books that have inspired me, and gave me hope are... "The China Study," by Colin Campbell and "How To Starve Cancer" by Jane McLelland This is how I try to survive these days. In case all of these will fail me... I want to accept the defeat and then just go under, but no conventionals again... 😀 But positively curious though about the Lutetium!

I was 64 years old when I had the biopsy confirming I had cancer. The biopsy showed cancer cells in all 12 of the core samples. My gleason score was 4+3. I believed and still do that the most effective way to remove prostate cancer cells is a prostatectomy. Had i been older maybe 78 or 80 I probably would not have had any treatment. I was completely without symptoms when I had the surgery done. I found out four years after the prostatectomy that the cancer had spread to my right lung.

My husband was diagnosed 2 years ago with stage 4 prostate cancer. He chose to do nothing no matter what I had researched. His PSA at that time was 32, last year it was at 80. Last year he also had a minor stroke which has weakened his left side which caused him to fall a few times & pulled his back. He’s been to physical therapy for balance but it didn’t do him any good. He walks kinda bent over & his left leg is still a bit weak plus his knees crack. (Yeah, at 74 & always been considered a large man 6’2”, 250lbs) he’s not aging well.) And he is also having some memory loss. Geez. I keep asking if he would like to do the radiation & hormone shots they wanted to do two years ago but on his very good days, he’s adamant he doesn’t & that he truly feels fine…it’s just what the minor stroke did to him that he’s having to deal with. So, he’ll be seen again by his urologist in October & we’ll find out how high his PSA levels are but I’ve read that even with levels over 1000 you can still feel fine. As his wife I truly hope the cancer gets him before his mind goes because that is worse than any of this.

Why didn't your doctor order a biopsy when your psa was 4?

[@larryseward1951]

I wish he had. In hindsight I would have demanded it. In 2015 a PSA of 4.0 holding steady year to year was considered just at the minimum limit of danger for cancer indication.

[@rpm9460]

@@larryseward1951 In 2010, my brother was diagnosed with prostate cancer, so I figured I better get checked myself. I was only 48 years old at the time. My PSA came back at 4, and 2 days later my urologist did the biopsy on me, which came back positive for prostate cancer. Your doctor should have done the same!!! I don't get it!! My prayers are with you brother, I wish you the best. 🙏

[@larryseward1951]

@@rpm9460 I am happy your cancer was identified earlier than mine. I truly think my cancer metastasized during that period of years I was at 4.0 neighborhood. Yes I should have had the biopsy sooner. Too late now. I need to realize what my current condition is and move forward. Thank you for your concern. Best of luck to you.

Mike. Thanks for your comment. We are not in this alone. Stay in the game. I hope my videos give you some comfort.

I will pray for your good health. I have you done a psma pet scan?

[@larryseward1951]

Josh, I am going to change my answer to your question on the type of PET scan I had. Looking back at my oncologist's notes, I see that they said my PET scan demonstrated high intensity fluciclovine-avidity (SUV 15) concerning for metastasis. My knowledge of PET scans is not good enough to answer your question. Maybe you can tell from the note whether the radioactive substance fluciclovine used in my PET scan indicates a PSMA PET scan or not? Sorry I cannot give a definitive answer. I have no medical background except what I am learning as a patient.

We’re you a 4+3 or 3+4?

[@larryseward1951]

I was a 4+3 Gleason. That biopsy was in the fall of 2015.

[@corgiowner436]

@@larryseward1951 I had one biopsy that was 4+3. Just finished ADT and radiation. Thanks for sharing your story.

I"m unclear; you said you had the Prostatectomy, but then....your Doctor discovered 'more' high PSA numbers?

[@Skwarek-wp8dc]

Prostatectomy doesn't guarantee that cancer is gone ... psa might be back with vengeance...

[@larryseward1951]

My cancer had metastasized to my right lung before the removal of my prostate. This was unknown until four years after the prostatectomy.

[@NickGermano]
