Finally!

Good news. Finally. I had my Bone Scan and CT Scan today along with radiation. I was able to get my results on the CT Scan and it showed a decrease in the area around my bladder and prostate, a shrinking in the lymph nodes, no further activity in the bone, and no change in the nodule on the lung and liver. The liver lesion is now noted as a low-attention indeterminate lesion, which according to this test, is most likely, not cancer. It still could be, but is less likely. This is compared to the scan 3 months ago. I was on Casodex the first month of that, but after, only Lupron and the Pancreatic Enzymes from the Kelley Protocol. It is still too early to determine if the enzymes were the cause of the static condition, but it is great news that it has not progressed in the last 3 months. I appreciate all the thoughts and prayers and believe that it had a great impact on my recent scans. Thank all of you very much! We will continue on the Enzymes and the juicing in hopes that we can continue our progress. We are on the move again to Teresa's mom's place in Libby, Montana. She and her husband, Bruce, are building a Yurt. Look it up, it's pretty cool. It is like a round heavy duty canvas cabin. We will be in closer proximity to Huntsman Cancer Institute in Salt Lake that has the newest treatments for Prostate Cancer. My Mom and her husband, Mack, have been very gracious hosts to us over the last 3 months and my brothers, sister, Dad and his wife, Linda, have been awesome. They have made a way to accomodate every need and it will be difficult to leave them again, but we are confident that this will be the environment and the location we need to finally get in front of this thing. We will be leaving in about 2 weeks and will continue to post from there. It is hard to keep moving, but our flexibility is our friend right now. I will have the PSA and final Bone Scan report next Wednesday. Fingers crossed for results confirming today's good news.Brian.
