In 2010 I was 62 and a biopsy showed Gleason 3+4. Had surgery, after surgery they told me it was a 4+3. It was only stage two. 3.5 Years later it came back and I had radiation. 2 1/2 years later it came back and I went on Lupron. I became castrate resistant 2.5 years later and added biclautamide. 1 year later went on Zytiga, which kept my PSA down for 2 1/2 years., After some AFIB Issues I switched over to Nubeqa, The last 20 months I’ve been undetectable. I became stage four about six years ago, had a metastasis on my spine zapped. I did not find out I was BRCA2 Until four years ago. I am 77 now, so even with a serious genetic problem, I’m still around..

you inspire me..I am hoping to ride a few more waves and enjoy some life- this ADT makes it hard to feel like your old self...I hope one day they have new targeted therapies that go right to the cancer cells and stop their growth..and we can leave all this ADT /cancer stuff behind..

thank you Jeff !! for all your insights !!
