Real World RCC Stories
Cancer Survivors benefited By Rasayana Therapy
Prostate Cancer
It started in Nov 2018, when I had trouble of frequent urination. I informed my family doctor who referred me to a urologist. The urologist advised me some tests and found that my PSA count was 74.631 He advised me visit an oncologist. The MRI scan shoed growth in prostate. This was followed with a biopsy which confirmed the diagnosis of prostate cancer. The Gleason’s score was 7 and the PSMA scan (Feb 2019) was suggestive of highly active cancerous growth of size more than 3 cm. Meanwhile my PSA level had shot up to 109.4 and my future seemed rather bleak. I got reference of Rasayu Cancer Clinic from internet and sought appointment. I met Dr. Bendale in Mar 2019. He referred me to one more oncologist to seek a second opinion. The oncologist advised me for Hormonal therapy and Radiation.
I also started Rasayana therapy simultaneously to increase tolerance of conventional therapy. I had 28 fractions of Radiation with no significant side effects. As per the protocol of Rasayu Cancer Clinic I did PSMA scan in Nov 2019. Findings of the scan was amazing. There was complete regression of cancerous growth. Also, my PSA count had come down to 0.679. I continued both the treatments and now I am cancer survivor leading a fully active life. I do pranayama and morning walk of nearly 3 km daily. My blood reports are within normal limits. This shows the safety of drug combination. I am still continuing both treatments. There is this misconception about having Ayurvedic medicines along with conventional medicine. But by my experience, I can say that Rasayan treatment does not interfere with the effect of conventional cancer treatment or vice versa. The integrated approach of combining Rasayana therapy with other conventional therapy proved beneficial for me.
My sincere gratitude to Dr. Bendale and team for their care and support.

Prostrate Cancer with Skeletal Mets
My father is a farmer. He worked hard throughout his life. In Dec-2014 he started complaining backache, pain in both legs, increased frequency of micturition, and weakness. Initially, we thought it may be due to excessive exertion so managed symptomatically. But in Mar 2015, we all were shocked when he got diagnosed with stage IV advanced prostate cancer which had spread to bones. His Gleason’s score was 8 which indicated a bad prognosis. His entire spine was studded with cancer lesions. Immediately he underwent surgery where both of his testicles and part of the prostate gland were resected. For the next 2 years oncologist put him on Hormonal therapy to reduce the level of testosterone. In Dec 2017 we noticed an increased level of PSA count.
This time we decided to take alternative treatment. My colleague advised me Rasayu Cancer Clinic. The same month we visited Rasayu Cancer Clinic. He had a problem with severe back pain, loss of appetite, pain in the abdomen, cough, breathlessness, difficulty to pass urine, and constipation. After a complete evaluation of clinical condition Dr. Yogesh Bendale advised personalized Rasayana therapy. We started this therapy along with hormonal therapy. Within one month of treatment, we noted significant improvement in the majority of his symptoms. In Jun 2018 as per the protocol of Rasayu Cancer Clinic, we did a PSMA scan. It indicated new skeletal lesions.
My oncologist told me that it is now a case of hormonal therapy-resistant prostate cancer which means that hormonal therapy was no longer effective for the cancer of my father. That day we decided to continue personalized Rasayana therapy alone. As per protocol, the PSMA scan was done after six months. This time we noted a marked response in all skeletal lesions. Next subsequent PSMA scans of Jun 2019 and Dec 2019 were suggested a stable disease. When we noticed cancer lesions are dormant, we were advised to stop Rasayana therapy. I personally noticed a significant improvement in his health condition while he was on Rasayana therapy. He was able to drive a tractor and could do all the hard work he used to do earlier. I know cancer is not completely curable but at the same time, you cannot bear to see our loved ones bedridden and in pain. My father had led a very active life and being bedridden would have been more frustrating.
Thanks to Rasayana therapy he has maintained a passionate and active life.
Rasayu Cancer Clinic is a ray of hope for those patients who are no longer able to take conventional cancer treatment because of resistance developed against the drug or therapy.
