My Profile: 67, waiting for Biopsy, Pi Rad 5.

PSA 8.4. (up from 5.3 2022). 

MRI - some areas of concern 

DRE - Inconclusive. 

If I elect Hormone therapy: 

Will I be able to continue sports, it's my life, 2 hours per day, including swimming (1500m in around 35 -40 mins)) 3/4 times per week, walking (6-12 km per day) and exercise bike (45 mins). 

I'm a former runner, scholarship athlete in the USA ...can't live without physical activity, it's a depression suppression method for me. Former 2:30/marathon (1980), before Supershoes. (ran in plimsolls in those days!). Tiger Onitsuka (Japan). 

Also I've been on 16/8 protocol since 2018. Maintains my normal weight (21 BMI) and glucose maintenance. Can I continue? Regular 24 hour fasting, also. I try once per week. 

 

I read that weight gain/diabetes is risk with hormone therapy - will those things (sports 2/hours per day) help to maintain my present weight? (6.1/74kg). 

Can you do sports with Metastatic Cancer? 

 

Diet: Any recommendations? I'm trying to cut back sugar to minimum. Dairy - not sure? Correlation, dairy/eggs, p c?

So much info internet and YouTube, head spinner. 

 

Thank you.
