terrysumner Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Well....decision made. Looks like I'm going to have at least 12 -16 weeks of hormone therapy and then go straight to surgery and have that cancerous sumbitch taken out! And I've already had 6 weeks of it so far. Then after that continue on the hormone therapy for a few years and monitor the PSA during that time. If it starts to creep up we will still have the chemo and the radiation options still in play. I like this plan a LOT better than having the radiation only option or the option of chemo followed by surgery followed by possible radiation! Just have to wait now and be sure the surgeon is on board with this plan! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bashace Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Terry, If you haven't done so yet, get a juicer, that fresh cancer killing juice is better than most medicines. My GF is fighting breast cancer that spawned an area on her spine, other than the fuzzy head, you would never know it (she's doing weekly chemo), latest PET scan shows her in full remission. She makes fresh juice 3 times a week, it keeps her immune system strong and PH levels in the higher Alkaline zone (where cancer has a tough time surviving). Kick this suckers butt and get well!
