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: Dad Just Diagnosed with Stage IV Metastasis to Bones only
Please see my husband's story under need an opinion. Not exactly like your father but his prognosis wasn't good at time of diagnosis and he is still here 10 years later with good quality of life. Psa is rising and we say he just doesn't look good on paper.
We will be thinking of you and will keep your DAD in our prayers. We have a 44 year old son who we encourage to monitor his psa closely. I would recommend you do the same.
