Doctor compared both pet scans (6 months gap) before and after surgery and did not alarm anything new. No bone pain as such currently. Based on doctor prescription he stated zoledronic acid injection on monthly basis. 2 injections so far. He currently takes bicalutamide (50 mg) along with other calcium and vitamin d supplement here are the 2 major issues I need help1. After zoledronic acid injection.

Cancer staging needs to do first. Different treatments / approaches are available for different stages. Psa will stop increasing only if we are able to treat the cancer or stop the cancer growth. Zoledronic acid & bicalutamide have limited role. Pet scans. Other reports & most imp patient s clinical condition will decide further treatment.

Yes. The Pap smear is indicative of infection for which antibiotic has been prescribed. Better get a repeat one after 6 months to confirm it is resolved.

Yes

More masturbation isn't good for health and future sexual life.

Do meditation, and avoid overthinking of sex and about opposite gender.

If there is nightfalls then it's ok.

Do concentrate on study, good physical and mental health.

Do kegale exercises for muscle tone which you will get on YouTube.

Eat healthy food avoid junk food.

Eat more ghee and drink milk regularly.
