This forum is for the discussion of anything to do with Prostate Cancer.
There are only four rules:

  • No fundraisers, no commercials (although it is OK to recommend choices of treatment or medical people based on your personal research; invitations to participate in third-party surveys are also acceptable, provided there is no compensation to YANA);
  • No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
  • No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
  • Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making

Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.

Re: Prostate Cancer

Martin,
One thing you can start doing is eat a heart/prostate healthy diet. What you want to do is try to slow the cancer down with diet as much as possible. This seems to work for some people but not for others. Get your PSA checked every 3 months and see what the doubling time is. If it doesn't double for at least a year then you might get a way with Terry's method.

Prostate cancer treatments are getting better so the longer you can wait before treatment the better.

One caution is that your Gleason 4 & 3 is worrisome so if your PSA hits 10 in the next year then you should get treatment sooner rather than thinking 5 years from now.
