	Just had 6 month psa, still a member of the zero club. Still working on the ED issues, it is slowly improving. No other problems. As much as I have put PC behind me I always will feel that you are never totally cured of cancer and it may wait for years to jump back in your life. Regardless I realize I am lucky to have my life back. Regards to all.
