Hi Larry. I have been seeing Dr. Kwon since July 2019. He has had me do spot radiation for a single bone met in 2019, Taxotere and 21 months of Eligard in 2020 for 4 mets. Oct 2022 PETCT found 2 bone mets that we treated with 1 session of SBRT (20Gy) on Dec 1st. Feb 2023 PSMA showed both mets completely gone but also found 18 new bone mets, restarted on Eligard and added Aberaterone + Pred, psa rapidly dropped to <0.10 and mets are now nearly invisible. On my recent visit in May Dr. Kwon was highly concerned that 3 ribs on my left side had lit up on the PSMA scan, when I told him I had been attacked by a cow 2 weeks earlier and suffered a fractured rib he was very relieved that it was not a large return of my cancer. He has been working hard to control my stage 4B cancer, I see him every 3 months for labs and a scan. My August visit will be a Choline C11 scan to check if there are any mets that do not express psma. Hoping that your last treatment will continue to produce good results. Dave
