Original message below as to what I had to do to get this thing under control. My PSA went down again, last month, PSA down to 1.06. I am keeping you guys posted regarding my particular case.
First thread
71 years old. Prostate Cancer discovered August 15 2011. Biopsy, 12 out of 12 positive.
PSA 14.7. Started Bicalutamid, 50 Mg. daily, 16 days ago; yesterday, shot of Lupron 30 Mg. Feel Fine so far.
NOW A MAJOR QUESTION: before any therapy started, a friend of mine of 50 years told me to check my PH lever. Was so low, I couldn't beleive it. Disolve 2 Tsp of Baking Soda, as per his instrution and 1 Tsp Dark Molasses with it in a glass of water daily, started September 15, 2011.
On October 3rd I checked my PSA, went down to 9.06!!!
Checked again October 17, 2011, DOWN 2.79 now, how in the heck can that happen? My SURGEON when asked the first time I seen him if it was possible for the PSA to go down. SAID, NO WAY, PERHAPS A LITTLE AFTER 4 MOTNHS OF TREATMENT. I ALSO ASKED THE RADIOLOGIST, SAME ANSWER. WOULD SOMEONE KNOW ANYTHING about THAT? OR HAD ALMIGHTY GOT INTO THIS, WHICH I DO NOT BELIEVE IT ANYWAY, BECOMING AN NON BELIEVER SINCE MY 20 YEAR OLD SON DIED IN A CAR ACCIDENT YEARS AGO?
