Logo, you're no troll. You're an inspiration. Thanks...
DjinTonic. pT3a, pN0 pMx Gleason 7 (4+3) <0.1 which is all I care about. Michael, I think I need to have the THC, for the anti-androgen affect. I don't think they can mail that because THC is still...
Greetings All, This may be a little long. I left this forum last fall primarily because I felt I was being trolled. For those who may be new, here's a brief description. 2013 I had an RP at MD...
I started this thread three years ago. I have done everything my team at MD Anderson has recommended. When my PSA spiked in October, they suggested I find a local urologist for follow up. I have...
F8. I checked out your instagram. Wonderful photos. Been to a few of those places....
I have to agree with this post....
logoslidat, your replies, and signature inspire me. thanks. I guess I'm not dabbing as per your description. I take a pea size drop of 2:1, CBD:THC oil on cracker twice a day. At first, the dope head...
I had an appointment with a urologist at Siteman cancer center. He suggested I get a PSMA CAT scan. He did not recommend ADT. I think they are finding out how toxic ADT is. The stats don't support...
Thanks again for all of the replies. This has turned out to be a very good thread, but please read my original post. I was asking about alternative treatments, not telling what I was planning to do....
Thanks notbubba. I have seen that Cleveland clinic appears to be the most active, trying alternatives. MD Anderson not so much. They ask me what I was doing when my PSA went detectable. I told them...
Who did you see the first time?...
I've mentioned medical cannabis as an alternative treatment on this forum in the past. I will update that thread in a few days. Jay Leno said that he usually prefers stock over resto-mod, because...
LOL because they didn't want to hear it, and suggested I see some one else, or LOL because my PSA came back up?...
Duke, I do the same as well. When I went to MDA it was after I had been diagnosed. I got a blood infection from the biopsy, the dr who did it, went on a two vacation afterwards, and left me waiting...
logo, Thanks for the reply, I liked it. What does "no sand" mean in your signature line?...
"Yep. That's usually how alternative treatments work. The treatment Can kill the cancer by one of two means. Either the treatment kills the patient outright, or the treatment directs the patient away...
Who has investigated alternative treatments for PCa? I'm probably going to have a PSMA PET scan to investigate a post RP rise in my PSA. I ask the urologist if it would be done before year end, and...
Yes, Prostate Cancer (PCa) has a 90% cure rate. But at what cost? When I was diagnosed nearly 7 years ago, I did a lot of research and learned that if there was an autopsy performed on every man that...
Fairwind, thanks for the reply. Looks like you've had a rough go. I suspected the cost would be extremely high. I will investigate that, if and when I decide to have the scan. I'm having another PSA...
Greetings, My PSA sky rocketed last month so my PA sent me to see a urologist with Siteman cancer center in St Louis. He suggested I might get a PSMA PET scan. Believe me I've had many scans over the...
Paxton, Thanks for your reply. You said, "Sometimes drugs can reduce PSA, but may not have a corresponding impact on PCa" I've wondered the same about ADT, does it counter act the PCa, or just cause...
Larry, Thanks for the reply....
F8, I guess it is possible that the cbd/thc is masking PSA, but isn't that what hormone treatment does? I can't find anything that hormone treatment does, other than reduce testosterone. I stated...
Well it's been a year since I gave an update. After my last post, I was planning to dose more regularly, I just couldn't do it. I don't like it. Anyway, I had a test last June which came in at 0.4....
I need to revisit my CBD/THC thread. The THC does not agree with me, so I have abstained from that since last year. After the test came back at 3.3, I took a few doses of THC oil, low and behold it...
Has anyone had this happen? My PSA became detectable in June 2016, 3 years after my RP. See my signature. We've been watching, and I've been trying cbd/thc. I was due my 4 month test last week. It...
Jim, I am in the care of MD Anderson cancer center. I have been doing exactly as they have instructed me to do. They have instructed me to retest in 4 month. So, I can can sit, wait, and worry about...
Well, I had my PSA checked this month after 4 months of dosing with 0 to 3% THC oil. Unfortunately my PSA went up to 0.3. I am going to up the THC, I guess I'll become a dope head for the next 4...
I think I said this earlier about medical marijuana, is that about half of the patients, and providers are doing it for medical marijuana, the other half, is doing it for marijuana. Combine that with...
I guess I’m slipping. I had my PSA test in June after 4 month without CBD. It became detectable? .1. My PA at MDA thinks it’s a joke, basically sad, that can’t be. Went to the dispensary, and they...
Well, I reduced my CBD consumption, just see if my PSA would go back up. It is still undetectable. I am going to stop using it until the next test in June. Until June. Phil...
Strayidog, thanks for the reply. Yes, I have, and always research everything the doctor prescribes. The propranolol (only prescription I take), does cause shortness of breath as well as a cough. It...
I started taking a small dose of propranolol about 4 months ago, for chronic migraines and to lower my blood psi. I exercise religiously. I have noticed I get short of breath easier now. I don’t want...
Searchinginla, I don't know. I don't think anything will cure cancer, but last year when my PSA became detectable, I just wanted to try anything to keep from going on hormones, that's why I tried the...
It hasn't been two months, but I had my annual lung scan and they always check my PSA. Back to undetectable <0.1. I did change dispensaries, and they talked me into doing a higher THC disposalable...
Starfinder, I checked your profile to see what state you are in, and noticed that you are an electronic technician, small world, I'm a retired electronic/electrical technician. I guess great minds do...
Ok, it's been 2 months. I just had my PSA tested. No change still at 0.10. I have not heard back from MDA yet. I am going to continue with the CBD. I did buy some low THC (3.5%) CBD oil at the...
good luck to all, I'll report back in 2 months....
Peanut, it sounds like a plan....
Sure wilderness, First of all, I've always been healthy, I'm not a junk food person, I've always exercised, and been active. The prostate was like, "ok, I can deal with this". But the lung cancer was...
Trail guy I hope you enjoy your breakfast, my wife doesn't cook, she's way too busy for that. I just had my morning "yuck". A butt load of fruit and vegtables, pulverized in a nutribullit, Yuck!...
Thomas, I think there are hemp oil CBDs. I'm not sure if they are effective, heck, for that matter I don't know if what I'm using is effective. Bolo, I don't know, it's all snake oil. But if a person...
DISCLAIMER! 12/19/19. I started this thread in 2016, 3 years after I had my prostate removed, when my PSA became detectable. I started using CBD/THC as a supplement. I never intended it to be a...
I agree with you purgatory. My PSA has been going from .3, 3 years post RP down to .06 which MD Anderson considers undetectable, now it's at .10. More to discuss on another thread....
Thanks Alcie, I went back to my family doctor and he told me the same thing, don't do the balloon. I've been using bothe squeeze bottle and nets pot,. I've been taking alicedin (garlic extract) and...
Greetings, I have been suffering from sinus pressure/pain and drainage, for over two years. I went to an allergy doctor to be tested for allergies, I tested negative to all allergens. I've been to an...
Update. Just had my PSA tested at 3 months. It is Back to undetectable. I am to have it checked again in 3 more months. I hope it stays undetectable....
If I can take a baseball bat embedded with nails, rammed up my rectum, for a prostate biopsy, I can handle a little tube up my nose....
I've been to a neurologist, no help there. I am going to see what the ent has to say on Monday, then go from there. Thank for the reply....
Chartreux, yes I get cardio screening every year. The cardiologist is who discovered my lung cancer. I get a full work up, including a tread mill stress test, and ultra sound blood flow. They tell me...
