@jeffmarc Sorry, I assumed stupidly on my part) that you were not ADT resistant yet; you’ve mentioned PARP inhibitors as your next step and I thought it would address castrate resistance.
Otherwise you seem (that’s another assumption on my part) to be doing well but I realize all the hard work that entails on a daily basis. It must get exhausting at times…

@heavyphil
It is hard to keep up with so many people, I always feel bad about not remembering people‘s exact case. I became castrate resistant six years ago. They talk about how ADT can be really hard on the body and cause people to die. That’s why eight years on it seems a little excessive, but it’s one of the things keeping me alive.

Running the track twice a day isn’t too bad because there are dogs there frequently and I get to pet them, get my dog fix. Today it’s raining so I have to run on the treadmill, Not nearly as entertaining.

Yeah, I really do dislike going to the gym three days a week. I normally would go today, but it’s a holiday and the place will be jammed so I’m not going. Once I get there, I work out the whole time so it Isn’t too bad. I could be doing things I would prefer doing, sometimes regret being unable to do other things in that time.

There’s really nothing else I do on a regular basis other than getting monthly blood test. Doesn’t take me long to get there, Round trip is less than an hour.

Since I have no fatigue and now my hot flashes are just warm flashes I don’t have much in the way of daily physical reminders. Just past 11:00, have to go run a mile.
