Hi All,
Just thought I'd post an update here.
After seeing two surgeons in different clinics here in CZ, I finally saw two oncologists at the cancer institute in the city where I live. They sent me for what they considered to be a better MRI scan than the previous one and another blood test. After inspecting the results, the general consensus was active surveillance for at least 5 years, with a targeted biopsy and another MRI scan in the new year. I will have blood tests every three months.
For me, this is the best outcome. When I informed the oncologist that the surgeon said I was too young for AS, he disagreed and said a surgeon will see those results and just push me into an operation. He told me the new MRI results show nothing particularly suspicious, and so the targeted biopsy will be necessary (not looking forward to that). I have to say that they have read over my results with much more consideration than the previous clinics.
Anyway, I know there's no magic wand to make it go away, but if anyone has any dietary tips etc that can help me, I'd greatly appreciate it. At least then I can feel like I'm actively doing something. Anyway, my next blood test is in December, so we'll see...
Thanks a lot,
C
