PET PSMA examination confirmed increased accumulation of radiotracer in lymph nodes throughout the body (meta 3/3 nodes). I feel good, every day at 6 a.m. I go for an hour and a half of Nordic walking. I started to significantly limit meat and sweets in my diet.

Dream:
My name is Andrzej and I am 67 years old.
I am a fulfilled husband, father of 2 daughters, cool father-in-law and grandfather of 2 little granddaughters. Apparently I'm a brilliant grandfather! I admit - my family is the most important to me.
I really enjoy cooking for them, especially apple pancakes on weekend mornings. My wife and I are a sociable couple: the door of our house is always open because a "full house" makes us happy.
In the summer of 2020, I was diagnosed with it prostate cancer. Histopathology after radical prostatectomy showed that it was a high-grade cancer. For me, this diagnosis was a shock: I had always been healthy and active. For 40 years, I have been professionally fulfilled by organizing sports events for my city. Active recreation energizes me, especially hiking and skiing.
I am currently continuing treatment because the PSMA PET scan confirmed the accumulation of radiotracer in lymph nodes throughout the body. I am taking hormone therapy and will start chemotherapy soon. My immediate family is actively looking for drugs and treatments, both in Poland and abroad. I know that thanks to your support I am recovering and will soon defeat cancer.
