Sorry, I did not know that I had to pay and that you are a Family Physician. Please disregard my request/story. Good Evening, I was first diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2002. The cancer was too small and just watching it was suggested by the doctor(s). the growth was very, very slow. Once it got past about a PSA of 5, I had annual biopsies. Eventually in Dec. 2017 my PSA went up rather quickly to about 9 and my doctor suggested a biopsy which resulted in a Gleason score of 9. My doctor, a Urologist, suggested to see an oncologist for the radiation around the prostate to take care of any micro cancer that may be there before treating the prostate with implants. Because of a minor preceding bladder surgery (transurethral resection), he injected a 4 months LUBRON. My PsA went to about 7 or 7.5 within 2-4 weeks. THEN ! on the 5th. of March I went to raw food diet until the 12th. of March, when I started with a one-week juice diet with 1 enema daily for one week about 7 PM, In the morning I also started with one cup of hot water with one tee spoon of Baking Soda every day, and 1/2 Cup of mostly carrot with spinach, beets, orange juice -each hour between 6 AM and 8 PM. and on the 19th. of March I went back to raw food diet. MY new PSA reading on the 19th was 0.6. YES, 0.6 ! ! ! Conclusion? Your opinion? Your advise? Bert: age 78 YYYY@YYYY
Hi, When was your last injections ok Lupron? Also, it wasn't clear if you underwent radiation therapy or not? PSA of 0.6 is a good sign that means the prostate cancer is dormant and I suggest you just continue what you are doing because it seems it's doing fine for you. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Manuel C See IV, Urologist
