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.
It's good to hear from you. I also received an invitation to participate in a podcast, and I replied asking for more details, but I haven't heard anything further from them.
Same here Mark. Looks like they aren't very interested in disclosing their purpose.
Along those same lines, I have been noticing an increase in news articles about PC. Most seem to lean toward saying things like "treatment can cause as much damage as the disease" etc. This is concerning to me as it seems to be telling folks that watching and waiting is the preferred way to go. I am not saying that is not an option but am afraid these articles are minimizing the risk involved with this cancer. I did that on my own for a year and it only served to allow my cancer to get more serious before I treated it. I try to inform all concerned to visit this site as I feel it is a valuable resource for those entering this cancer arena. Jon.
