I am 77 years old and my journey thus far is this. In 2017 I was diagnosed with prostate cancer and it was determined after a biopsy, that I was a candidate for radio-active seed implant. I received 31 seeds and all was well for a number of years. In 2021 my psa hit 1.22 and then in 2022 it went back to 0.21. In 2023 the psa went to 2.26 and 6 months later it was 5.41. I did a biopsy and the results came back negative. The Urologist decided to take wait and see period. On 02-27-24 my psa was 172. I then did a whole body bone scan and that also came back negative. On 03-07-2024 my psa was 356 and a PET test was scheduled. On 04-01-2024 the results of that test showed Widespread osteoblastic skeletal metastatic disease. (Not Good) I was then referred to a cancer doctor. On 04-11-2024 I received 2 injections of Lupron. On 04-18-2024 I had a port installed for chemo. On 04-19-2024 psa was 113. I had the first round of chemo (Docetaxel) and started taking Nubeqa. On 05-10-2024 psa was 16.8. Had second shot of Lupron and second round of chemo. Today 05-31-2024 psa is 7 and I will take third round of chemo. Except for hair thinning and a sore mouth for 5 days after chemo, I have no side effects. So all seems to be going in the right direction and like someone said. I WILL DIE WITH THIS NOT OF IT.
Keep your spirits up God is in control
