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.

Since this is an International Forum, please specify your location in your post.

Re: Dealing with the Brain Dead in the Medical Establishment

I'd say it was well past the time when you should have tried to find a medical team who are more interested in your welfare.

I always thought this was a significant quote from Dr Strum: "Unfortunately, we appear to be living in a time when physician income is more important than patient outcome."

Re: Dealing with the Brain Dead in the Medical Establishment

Good quote Terry.

Tony ... my Oncologist told me to have the PSA checked about six or eight weeks following radiation treatment.

No one seemed really concerned about it. I'm going back to my GP next month and get it checked ... or the month after, doesn't really matter to me cause even if it didn't work, I doubt I'd go thru that course of treatment again.

All I wanna do now is pee without pain. Maybe someday.
