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: After reading thousands of posts on different boards,
I think you are making an assumption that may not be correct. I have only seen studies on side affects that relate to treatment options not gleason scores. It may be that people with higher G scores or those with side affects post more on websites. To patients with low gleasons and sucessful procedures, PC is just a bump in the road of life and they are not on websites.
