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: Need a Few Responders To Get The Party Started
I was diagnosed with PCa in 2008. After a fair amount of research and hand ringing I settled on Proton Beam Radiation. Following treatment my PSA remained low and steady for three years, but regrettably it began a slow but steady upward trend.
After a fair amount of research I ended up consulting Dr "Snuffy" Myers. Following several years as his patient and a good many ups and downs my PSA returned to its slow steady upward trend. In 2017, after considering several treatment options, Dr Myers and yours truly settled on Xtandi which has effectively held my PSA at a consistent .02. "Amen and Halleljah"!
Best wishes to you and yours.
