I didn’t. After salvage radiation treatment, I sought out holistic treatments. Didn’t find anything that seemed to help but I couldn’t just sit still and do nothing. I did feel good that I was at least trying and it furthered my education into this difficult disease.

I would like to introduce myself. I am a 60 year old advanced metatastic prostate cancer patient. I was diagnosed in 2004 and underwent surgery, then radiation at MD Anderson, followed by hormone therapy and immune and chemo therapy. My cancer has been under control for 6 years but 3 months ago my PSA started rising again. I have experienced a lot and have a lot of inight I will be glad to share with anyone who needs help.
With a rising PSA how will you decide what to do next? will you wait for symptoms or begin treatment sooner?
Did you hear about the new prostate cancer vaccine treatment that the fda approved this week?
