It has gone from 14.7 to now 0.04. I am not sure what it means, however, Dr. Green my Oncologist gave me another 4 months Lupron shot yesterday. He says, the Cancer has nealy stops on it's track, whatever that means. Thanks the Canadian Health Care, any of that, hospitals, MRI's Bone Scan and the likes cost me 0. Nilch, Nada. Of course, I have paid into the system plenty over the years.
I've got to tell you; no after effect, other then when he first shot me Lupron 4 months ago. Only that where he shot me Lupron, it sort of hurt a little for a few hours. This time, Nothing! After effects, None that i could tell , being 71, you know.
The one he gave yesterday, I didn't feel it. Only a little prick, where he shot me. Nothing else. No pain whatsoever, and it has been 28 hours since.
Of course, I am going for an MRI Wednesday next week. The Radiologist (Although he didn't guarantee it) told me I likely have 15 mm spot on my lower back, that was for months ago, fist MRI. I guess next week will tell if it is cancer of simply that I haven't been able to touch my toes for 15 odd years, as my back cannot take it.
I swim 5 days a week, 1,000 metres, I also use a Torso Tracker, 105 times daily, 7 days a week at it's highest and hardest points. It is like reverse paddling a boat, only much, much harder.
I am 71, as you all know. I have a question: How many 4 months of Lupron Depot can I take with it being inefective after a while? Does working out help? Of course, I have worked out most of my adult life. My health other than that (That is a Big Deal) is perfect. Nothing in my background, family wise have had health problems, other than dying very old. Momy at 92, Daddy at 97. Brothers, sisters still, alive and kicking, healthy a like horses
The entire thing is very puzzling. I eat cooked tomatoes daily, making soups (I LOVE IT) I eat either Stawberris, 1 lb daily or a few apples, meat is almost non existant. So, why, Me, Jean Claude. Gee, what have I done to be like this?
