Just got David’s PSA it’s once again <0.1 once we are delighted. He has decided to have a hormone holiday the Prostap as it’s been undetectable, and has been so for four years now.
it is 10 years since his HDR Brachytherapy and radiotherapy.
His PSA went up four years ago, and he went back in the Prostap, but also following an alternative programme
( not prescribed by the oncologist) we researched and decided as he was Gleason 9 Tb3 we’d give it a go, and he is doing well.
David is 76 this year, and we are still managing our acre of garden growing our veggies, living mostly off grid. Today we worked outside beginning the tidy up, and sowing seeds.
David is still playing, singing and writing music in winter and we are in the garden in spring and summer. Evidently Prostap can cause heart problems and as he had a heart attack 5 1/2 years ago, and he doesn’t want further heart damage, he has one stent and mild angina.
So, all you lovely G9 lads I hope this gives you hope.
Next month we celebrate my birthday our wedding anniversary and 10 years since his diagnosis.
Now time for a glass on red wine and supper.
