I am a 72 year-old-male who completed 25 sessions of proton radiation about 6 weeks ago for 10 core cancer cells located in and outside the prostate. My last PSA was >0.10 so I am pleased with the results. I am still on Lupron and Abiraterone for the next year or so. I am looking into alternatives such as a Naturopathic approach. In particular is anyone taking Ivermectin, Fenbendazole, Claritin, or Dipyramidole?

@jjensen155, I moved your question about naturopathic approaches to prostate cancer to this related discussion:

When considering naturopathic, complementary or alternative treatments, be open-minded yet skeptical. Learn about the potential benefits and risks. Keep in mind that natural substances can also have toxicities, adverse side effects and treatment interactions. Supplements are not regulated and can be marketed without rigorous clinical testing.

I'm throwing confetti that proton radiation and androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) have been helpful in lowering your PSA significantly. How are you feeling?
