I am blessed with another <.01 post surgery PSA test result!
I am truly blessed and believe that the experienced hand of my surgeon and the grace of God have given me these < .01 results… I also believe that diet and exercise are the two elements you control 100% in your fight and are key to any treatment course you take…
Yes, I am happy today….Until the next test in 90 days..Peace

 Wishing you many, many more results identical to this!!
 Great news on your PSA scores. I'm sure it's a relief to have that behind you. Here's hoping this is the early start of a very long string of nada PSA readings. Undoubtedly your discipline in following a smart diet and exercise regimen is paying off.

 Congratulations on

 Congratulations on the ZERO… I am happy for you as I know the feeling…..Right now I hate the week before my test and the few days after waiting for the results and for me it is an every 90 day drill …but I know this will pass and I will embrace another positive outlook…
 I probably do a bit more of exercising than most guys my age but I believe that my program is a good one and I could reduce the time I spend walking/running to 30 minutes most days and it would be as good…lifting weights is important and stretching is very important (yoga for me)…
 I do the following:
 3 x week I lift weights for about 30 minutes and I also walk and/or run 4 or 5 miles (45 minutes-1 hour 15 minutes)
 2 x week I walk/run 6-7 miles (1 hour-1 hour 45 minutes) and I do 30minutes to 45 minutes of yoga too…
 Most weekends I do some sort of activity on Saturday (hike and fish, canoe, yard work, etc…) and I do relax on most Sundays …
 If you are looking for more details I can assist or direct you to some good web sites…
 As far as diet it is a personal choice but I would recommend it!
 Best to you-B
