Wow…that’s rough!
As your blood cancer oncologist is agreeing to hold off on PCa treatment and the PCa still appears to be localized I’d encourage you (as one PCa patient to another) to consider putting the ERASE protocol to the test.
There are definitely no guarantees and it’s not easy, but there is good science behind it and who knows???
In this thread I haven’t even mentioned all the non-PCa benefits I’ve received since starting.
Just yesterday my wife found, while rummaging through old files for other reasons, a 5k race I ran (my only one) when I was 37 years old (32 years ago).
I couldn’t believe it, but my best 5K time, at 68 years old a few months ago, is only 6 seconds slower than my 37 year old self! I couldn’t believe it….and that’s just the tip of the benefit iceberg.
Anyway, if you’re up for it DM me and I’ll can set you up into our “Runners Group”….not all of us run, but we encourage each other in whatever exercise we enjoy.
Whatever you decide, all the best to you!
Just as an FYI, I will be 71 in a few weeks… I used to run many 5K’s but another one of my medical problems is that I have osteonecrosis of my left knee… I can bike, swim, and walk with no issues, but I can’t pivot at all and have been advised not to run…
I certainly will look into ERASE to see what else I can do.. I never swam laps before last September and am not a great swimmer, but now I can knock off 2000 yards relatively easily… As I mentioned in an earlier post, I have a PSMA Pet scan coming up to see if there has been any worsening of the PCa.. Hoping for no metastasis as that would complicate everything..
I really appreciate your input..
Thanks and have a great day..
