Life is good for me, 20 months into Active Surveillance.
I continue to be asymptomatic.
My stream has returned to normal and my prostate is 12% smaller, without Finasteride.
My PSA was over 6, now it’s 3.
My 1.4 cm lesion PIRADS 4 on MRI 1 vanished on MRI 2 a year later, at the same facility, on the same machine, interpreted by the same doctor. (smaller PIRADS 3 showed, but was benign, not even requiring a biopsy)
On AS for 20 months without testosterone suppressing drugs. Life is above normal.
Natural testosterone has risen from 170 to over 300. Very Active.
Edema in feet and ankles: gone.
Lost 37 pounds naturally, 1.5 inches lost in my neck. I no longer snore.
Feeling great, physically and emotionally.
I have kicked the can down the road almost 2 years, better off at 70, than I was at 68.
80% of what I accomplished comes down to just 3 things. 1) Pomegranates, 2) Rosemary, and 3) Changes in My Diet.
If I ran across this website at the time of my diagnosis and got that TL;DR feeling (Too Long, Didn’t Read), this is the place I would want to be. And if I wanted to imitate what I saw here without spending 100 hours reading what took over 1,000 hours to create, I would do these three things:
Pomegranates – Easy – the Miracle Fruit from antiquity enhanced with modern research-based support items. I order and take these five things.
Rosemary – Easy – the Miracle Spice from antiquity also enhanced with modern research-based support items. I order and take these four things.
Diet – Harder. but not so hard since it means I avoid surgery, radiation, and testosterone suppressing drugs. And I avoid all those unfortunate side effects! I clean my water and my air, and I EAT FRESH FOODS while avoiding these three things in my diet to SLOW THE GROWTH of PCa as well as all cells in my body. I also stopped using plastics in my cookware, my dishware, and food storage containers.
If I had to do it over again I would do the same three things.
I AM NOT A DOCTOR. THIS IS MY STORY ONLY, MY ONE-MAN EXPERIMENT ON MYSELF. I CANNOT AND DO NOT RECOMMEND ANY OF THIS TO ANYONE ELSE SINCE I AM NOT A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL. I am an engineer and scientist, so I have that going for me (apologies to the Caddyshack Meme).
However, if I had to do it over again I would do the same three things. Feel free to post questions or comments at various places found on the site, or email me at admin@iloweredmypsa.com.
