Your posts are very informative. You seem very knowledgeable. Is this from being an informed patient?

I have had PC for 15 years. I’ve had surgery and then radiation and then two more recurrences. I’ve been on Lupron and Orgovyx, Zytiga and Darolutamide.

For about the last four years, I have attended weekly, advanced prostate cancer online meetings at Ancan.org. I hear from people every week that talk about their new case of advanced prostate cancer or an old case that is being managed. I hear about all different types of treatments being given.

I also attend prostate cancer UCSF online meetings once a month and a CSC Meeting twice a month. And in those meetings, lots of new people discussing their cases and treatments they’ve had or are planning to have.

I am a mentor with Imerman Angels And I help people who are having issues adjusting to prostate cancer.

I attend many webinars, Usually more than one a week, Discussing treatment and other issues related to prostate cancer. Going to PCRI meetings can Provide an incredible amount of information. You can check them out on YouTube if you really wanna get an education.

So I’ve spent a lot of time collecting information because I need to know where I can go with my next step.
