Chris here from UK.
Agree with all of that.
My consultant adopted the same approach ie don't be passive get after the cancer with as many weapons as you can throw at it and look for a curative outcome rather than kicking the can down the road.
Like you I exercise regularly and have changed diet to whole food plant based. Reccomend reading the China Study which is eye opening.
My psa is <0.001 and T is 0.18 or thereabouts.
My consultant has repeatedly said to me don't underistmate the positive effect diet and exercise is having on my program.
In fact he regards it as an additional arm of treatment in its own right.
As well as Lupton injections I am on Enzalutimide tablets and have had chemo docytex and 20 rounds of radio to prostate and 2 lymph nodes in pelvis.
Got diagnosed last Sept with locally advanced Gleeson 10 PC.
Urologist originally said that he didn't think I could be cured, but when I went onto Oncology my new consultant said he wanted to get after it aggressively and a curative outcome was his objective.
Seems to me from my research that the more weapons you throw at it from the off which includes diet and exercise the better the outcome.

My medical team has often said that they believe my diet, exercise and attitude have been a critical factor in the success I've enjoyed in my journey.

It was a video by Dr. Kwon that changed my approach where he talked about the failed linear and sequential approach destined to fail versus combining treatments and bring them forward in the treatment to overwhelm the disease when it was not in such an advanced state and the individual was not beaten down health wise from a variety of treatments.

Am I cured, probably not. However, coming up on four years off treatment is a pretty good response given my clinical history in January 2017.

I do believe we are entering a period where we live with this, much like diabetes snd AIDS.

The advances in treatments and imaging have been exponential since 2014 and I believe we are on the cusp of revolutionary advanced in genomic diagnosis and treatment where instead of population based decisions, we will be able to tailor it to an individual's specific disease.
