Doing research while being anxious

I must admit I also was overwhelmed by all the information I read about PC when I was first diagnosed and it didn’t help that my urology nurse gave me end-of-life information which made my wife cry.
So, where am I at fifteen months later? The photo was taken on June 13th - two weeks ago - at the end of an international endurance cycling event.
I am 68 years old and have endured radiation therapy, daily doses of Albiterone, Lupron infusion etc. and, although certain stretches of the journey have been unpleasant, I remain optimistic about the future. I will not let PC defeat me.

@madisonman0326 Good for you - one picture really IS worth a thousand words…Best,

@madisonman0326 That is impressive. Were you doing these endurance cycling events before you got diagnosis? I am starting out walking 1 mile a day and working gradually up to 3 miles. And also lifting small weights at first and maybe Tai Chi char exercises? I don't know. That's a whole other post. I haven't had time to research exercise yet, so I am not really sure what the regimen will be. Dan
