I am 61 years old. I was diagnosed with metastatic de novo PC July 27 2022. My birthday of all days. Cancer showed up in my bones - spine, ribs, and hips. I had intense pain at first - I could not lay on my back. After an emergency Gall Bladder surgery - I still could not lie on my back. Went back to the ER - had CT and Bone scans which confirmed adenocarcinoma PC. Started Casodex (30 days) and 10 cycles Radiation to spine and 5 to ribs. Pain disappeared and has never come back. PSA started at 32 and quickly dropped to 1.005. A month later I started Darolutamide and Chemo therapy. I had 10 cycles of Docetaxel because my blood was other-worldy and 10+ cycles of chemotherapy has greater overall survival (OS) stats. Because I could handle chemo very well my doctor asked if I wanted to continue - so I did. At the end of my 10th chemo cycle my PSA dropped to 0.238 and continued to slowly drop to undetectable. I am a slow PSA dropper. All Genetic and Genomic testing also came back negative. I have Zometa infusions every month and eat a 60% plant based diet, exercise (bands & walking) and I work every day. My recent Bone scan showed great improvement and several spots are now resolved. My treatment was patterned after the ARSENS trial. It has been 5+ years since the ARSENS trial ended. At this time Overall Survival (OS) and time to Castration Resistance still has not been reached from the ARSENS trial.

Lastly, I do not look at or except the SARS data. The SARS data is based on ADT alone. This is a Chronic Disease - the medical community does not know how long anyone will live with this disease. I expect to live 20+ more years. Lastly, I find rest and peace with my relationship with Jesus.
