It is fantastic! I am so glad for you. At 62 you have the best years of your life coming. My Doug at 82 is so comfortable with where he is and how he has lived, he is ready to go off the therapy. He will accept no further treatment. We both wish you the best of good health!

My father died of prostate cancer at 88. He died because lupron was the only drug at the time, and it failed. He died in an incredible amount of pain and for the last couple of weeks could not talk to anybody because the drugs to manage the pain had him so loopy.

This is a man who had his teeth ground down and crowned without Novacaine. Then he would come home for dinner and you never know anything was wrong.

I don’t care how the drug interaction is, dying from prostate cancer is worse.

Get him on Darolutamide, That drug alone may give him years. Speak to your doctor and ask for it specifically.
