I’ve lived most of my life on a plant based diet. When I started Orgovyx, it was stressed repeatedly to have a low fiber, high protein diet with regular exercise. I’ve done that, and still managed to gain 4” around my waist and 25 pounds after the radiation treatments were done. I now have 8 months of Orgovyx left to take. I don’t care for red meat, and after finishing my treatment, I’m going right back to healthier (in my book) eating. I tried my regular diet early on and ended up with a minimum of 4 hours of stomach cramps daily, sometimes so severe I couldn’t move. The relief came with less roughage, pepto bismol every morning, 250mg of simethicone before every meal, and dicyclomine HCL up to 4 times a day as needed. But then again, I seem to be the poster child for side effects.
