Yes it's been a long time, a long journey in fact, since I was diagnosed with advanced stage 4 prostate cancer. I am actually very lucky that my cancer is not the aggressive type and is now inactive. My latest CT Scan which was done early last year showed my prostate is clear and the two tumors, one on my upper back and the other pressing against my pelvic bone, cannot be detected. However, I still have to be under active surveillance for the time being. I still have to continue taking abiraterone+dexamethasone and have my blood test done frequently.
I know I have put up a good fight against my cancer and I am very happy with the result. The sad point is that my bones are now badly damaged, caused by the cancer cell. Also due to my old age my movement is restricted. Anyway, every day I wake up is another day 😊.
