Big fan of Dr. Kwon! PSA was rising fast by mid-2022. Then age 72. Researched biopsy methods and was impressed with Mayo’s methodology. Met with Dr. Kwon in October 2022. Biopsy and PET scan findings diagnosed stage IVB “CT3a, CN1, CM1a, PSA 23.4, Grade Group 5”. Spread to pelvis and lymph nodes, including chest area. Started Lupron injections every three months. Later changed to monthly shots. Did six chemo sessions (Taxotere) at Minnesota Oncology where I also started Nubeqa. Then did 26 sessions of “intensity modulated radiotherapy
” at Mayo Northfield, ending In May 2023. Lupron ended Feb 2024 after 13 months. Continuing Nubeqa. Strength returning as T rises. PET scans every three months have been clear.
