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.
I was 73 when diagnosed. I had hormone therapy. then EBRT plus brachytherapy, 12 months ago. To date I have had no ongoing problems. The PSA reading is good and as I have now crossed the 75 year old border I am feeling quietly confident.
I don't know who comes up with all these theories about what might happen. I feel very content with my present situation. Would be nice if I could still "do the business" if you get my message, but that ain't the be'all and end'all of life. Just the best part of it :-)
