Majed, excellent advice from Jeff. I was diagnosed 2+ years ago stage 4 with skeletal metastasis. Chemo followed by Lupron and Yonsa (abiraterone). Lesions reduced in 6 months, last 3 six month scans have been clean. I will remain on the Lupron and Yonsa indefinitely. A second opinion is a good move (it was my 2nd opinion that made the Dx). Keep or start a good physical exercise program (any exercise will help) as well as a good diet. There are several sources that recommend diet for cancer patients. And importantly a positive outlook, he will beat this. Prayers to you.
Thanks
