Stage 4, mets to liver, lungs, bones, 3.9 years in. I am on second progression (Biochemical Recurrence). Currently on Eligard, Zytiga and dexAMETHasone, PSMA Scan next month (October). Low/Moderate Exercise everyday at least 60 minutes, diet is nutritionally based, social life is grand, and faith is wonderful. RLE (Relative Life Expectancy) is great. Started age 67, never thought I'd live to see 70, I just turned 71. Best version, wellness driven and wholeness guided.

What wellness and wholeness changes did you make or do? My dad is stage 4 prostate cancer and we are looking at whole body health to help his body fight the cancer.

Hi Proftom2,
I am on Eligard (6 mos) plus abiraterone and prednisone.
I was told the abiraterone helps with long term recurrence and the prednisone counteracts some of the side effects. However, I know each case is unique and the treatment protocol might vary. I had Gleason score 9 PC and my PSA has been at 0.0 for the past 3 blood tests. The only issue has been finding s dose of abiraterone that doesn’t elevate my liver enzymes (bilirubin, AST and ALT). Anyway, best to you and may you be worry free.
