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: what if all treatments have contraindications-still check PSA?
Martin,
I am puzzled as to why you should have had two biopsy procedures five years ago, why you are on Proscar and why you are concerned if your PSA is stable - and how do you measure it's stablity if you are not having tests?
Perhaps if you provided a bit more background it might be possible to get some discussion going.
