Prostate cancer and co-morbidity. An interesting study.

Spot on, North - nobody EVER dies from the non-metastatic type, do they? Why would they?
So it’s always cardiovascular disease and diabetes that gets THOSE men in the end….or something else. I guess that’s where “most men die with, not from” comes from…
Another article that literally offers nothing in the way of progress; just another statement of the obvious!

I appreciate the links from @hanscasteels and @survivor5280 as well as everyone's comments about them. While I have made significant strides in optimizing my dietary and exercise behaviors, being prompted to revisit where I am through reading through the content of these studies/links, as well as the links referenced within them, encourages me to continue to make improvements. Today's posts resulted in the treadmill's interval training program being used to the point that I break a sweat for at least 30 minutes, something I had gotten away from doing while dealing with another medical issue. Thank you all!

I think the point is that recurrence of non-metastatic cancer in metastatic form is a lower mortality risk than other health issues (like diabetes or heart disease), so don't let the shock of big "C" word distract you from taking care of the rest of your health.
Even with metastatic cancer, I spend a lot of time trying to make sure that if I somehow beat this I don't get taken down early by something else.
