    Dire diagnosis at age 57, Dx in 2012 with PSA of 71.5 with 5 bone mets, Stage 4, 4+3, given 3-4 years to live. Currently PSA undetectable at 0.014 no bone pain, no radiation, just Zytiga treatment since 2014!. In remission since 2014 , so 7 years, working on that 20 year mark! Thanks PCRI for these discussions , and HOPE!!!

    My dad died from prostate cancer in May of this year. When he was diagnosed he was at stage 4 with widespread bone metastasis. His urologist diagnosed him with BPH and never did a biopsy. He had two urolift surgeries and I believe 100% it spread the cancer all over his body. I am so heartbroken. My dad didn't deserve to die this way. He was the best father a daughter could ask for. He should have died with prostate cancer and not from it. Men beware!!! Do not have the Urolift procedure without demanding a biopsy be done first.

My oncologist has given me a 5 year average survival rate. Apart from this I'm very fit and healthy. I'm 73. Can't see where the 20 year survival comes from? More detail would be nice.

    Hi. Could you please ask the Doctor his view on which treatment is better for advanced prostate cancer (T4 stage) for a 54 year old man as a first-line treatment. Ezalutamide tablet (to take 4x daily) or Docetaxel chemotherapy (once every 3 weeks). We must decide between these two and are very confused on what to go for. This treatment will be concurrent with the hormone injection (every 3 months) which has already started.

      I wish I never did chemo for mine. It's not curative in stage 4. For me and most people in our shoes it just makes it come back more aggressive. If you're only 54 I would fast. Fast often and ketogenic diet when not water fasting. There are several people who have had total remission after doing this. Look at Dr. Berg channel where he interviewed Guy Tennenbaum and others who did this.

    My husband is 61 year old and has been recently diagnosed with high volume tumor but only on right side - PSa of 7 but Gleason score of 9. Scary. Clean psma pet . Cancer only on right side. No sigh of metastatic cancer from psma pet and bone scan and mri. But the tumor is pressing on the capsule of the prostrate. He is Thin and fit and active. Too young for the awful side effects of surgery or radiation. Thinking of trying nano knife from a clinic in Germany. They also do some form of chemo with the nano knife and some form of immunitherapy Td-1 blocker. What do you think? Cyber knife is a back up plan. Should know within 3 months if nano knife has worked. Also trying care oncology nutritional protocol . Thoughts ?? Is it worth tryin nano knife and delaying radiation for a few months ?? Or is that crazy risky ??
