    Good attitude. You’re so right about worrying about things you can’t control. Keep the faith and good luck on your pet scan.

    That’s really positive news, to reverse the trend is hopefully the start of a permanent recovery, all the best😊

    Hi Woody
    My PSA started to rise very slowly over the last few months
    Was stable at 0.1 for abour a year then went 0.2 then 0.3 and last test was 1.5 .
    Had a visit this week with urologist she has already booked me for a bone scan wiith a dye for tomorrow.
    Im worried and yes anxious for results i get a follow up with my Oncologist Midfle of July
    I finished my chemo treatmenf last Sept and been on Nubeqa and Zoladex and Zometa from day 1.
    Im not sure if they will change treatment or monitor the pSa awhile longer .
    The extreme fatigue the last couple of months has been awful.
    I agree with you the weather here in Ottawa Canada has been terrible im generally very upbeat but i found myself overwhelmed with grief and what if's .
    The sun always shines .
    Thanks for your video Woody i think many of us are on a very similar path .
    I reach out to everyone with Love and support .
    One day at a time .
    Like Tom McDonald's song Cancer
    "The days are long and the nights are hard "

    Hi Woody,
    I live in South Africa. The sun is always shining here and there is always the risk of developing skin cancer if you have a light skin. I developed a growth on the lower eye lid of my right eye. I do not know if it is cancer or just a benign growth but I went on a high nutrition diet for about two months and the growth have shrunk noticeably.
    I would like to share the diet with you.
    The soup
    Ingredients: - two handfuls of Chopped broccoli, one chopped onion (purple), two bags of green tea, two pinches of mixed herbs, two sticks of cut celery, Two handfuls of frozen and crushed spinach or kale, half a table spoon of crushed garlic, Three shakes of black pepper, seven shakes of turmeric, two tablespoons full of apple cider vinegar (with the mother), one bag of white onion powder soup for flavour, a hand full of cooked red speckled beans and a handful of cooked mince meat.
    Just add all the ingredients in a pot, add boiling water and switch the stove on high till the water boils. Then lower the heat until the water simmer, Let the soup simmer for an hour. The soup is now ready.
    I would only drink water in the morning. At 12h00 I would start eating the soup. There will be about two helpings that you can eat in the 12h00 to 18h00 time frame. I also ate a fruit salad every day in the 12h00 to 18h00 time frame.
    (Note: Apparently turmeric reduces the effect of some chemotherapy drugs and thus should not be taken during chemotherapy.)
    During the rest of the week I would also eat food that contains vitamin D like avocado’s, mushrooms, liver and eggs in the 12h00 to 18h00 time frame.
    It seems to be working for me, maybe it will also work for you.
    I pray to God the Father in the name of Jesus Christ that you will be healed. Amen.
    I would also like to share the following six videos with you about salvation and two videos about evolution:

      Thank you Chris, both for your recipe and all of the links, I’m not a religious man but I do admire those who have faith in their gods whatever religion they follow.

    The time does fly by Woody. Always filling up my pill dispenser, and seeing my doc for the three month injection. We have a great system here in Canada. The pharmacy (chemist as you say) delivers the injection to the house, so i can just take it with me to the docs office, and the Xtandi is delivered to the closest pharmacy to my home. I get a notice on my phone when it has come in. My scans are everything six months in the city, and are scheduled in one day. Results on a zoom call, so i don't have to go back into the city. Happy with the care. Hope you're having a good Sunday with your family, regards, Carl

      That sounds like such a well organised way of doing things and probably a lot less stressful

      I agree, it’s an emotional rollercoaster all the time. My PSA drops but I’ve got a new tumour.

    Glad Woody your PSA fell slightly to 2.64. I presume that you are still on ADT.

      @Livingwith-prostatecancer  6 месяцев назад +1

      Yes I am, I’m thinking it may of stopped rising because I’ve changed to Zoladex from Degarelix
