Good luck CHP. Most of the guys here have dealt with the emotions and medical issues that you are beginning with and frankly, we understand. We probably understand better than our doctors understand as we are on the front lines dealing with our life’s uncertainties. I have recently purchased Michael
Milken ‘s diet book for fighting cancer. When Milken was in his forties he was diagnosed with PC and his prognosis then was a year or so. He did research and then completely changed his diet. He is now 77. The things that he wrote in his book are in line with, but more detailed than what my oncologist has told me. I am following my doctors instructions AND following the diet in this book. I feel better, actually, doing what I can to help myself and my family. I am optimistic (most of the time). More than 2 years ago, after RP, I was told that my prognosis was 4-5 years. I have been off of all meds for 9 months and my PSA is now and has been .01
I am planning and hoping and working on beating my prognosis by many many years, much like Michael Milken has. It is a battle that is worth fighting and one that we all must do as best as we can. Perhaps you can chat with your doctors about the benefits of a change in you diet. Best of Luck!
