Get walking

My situation is running anywhere between 30 & 60 miles per week for the past 4 years & at the age of 44, I've had a prostatectomy.

Maybe my damage was done in my 30's when I moved into management, loaded myself with stress, worked rediculous hours & looked after my kids & family instead of myself.

I ate when I could, usually late at night, drank & never went near the scales.

I've no doubt that getting & keeping fit has helped me get through the op & will help me recover but it's certainly not prevented the onset.

My GP tells me, they've been testing my PSA levels for the past 5 years annually when doing my diabetic analysis & it's only risen this year.

As you say, if only that simple.

All the best

As others have stated a healthy lifestyle is to be encouraged for dozens of reasons......

I'm more than a little sceptical as to whether it has helped me personally with regards to PCa

I always played sport on a regular basis  at a decent level in my younger years.... and from my mid twenties was a keen club cyclist who would regularly cover 200 miles a week in training...... When a back and knee injury put a stop to my cycling days I took up walking..

I still walk at least 5 miles on a daily basis across country with my dogs...

There is no doubt in my mind that keeping my level of fitness up has helped me recover quickly from the surgery itself...
 Because I was in a higher risk category ( my father died of PCa at 55 ) I don't think I could have done any more to  have altered events in my case.....
