Newbies...take note...this thread shows one thing...most folks who are or have been on this site...live a long time with this appropriately labeled dis ease...and yes it is a purgatory for some...an indulgence for others...but for the most part if one is really living with it and not making it their identity or raison de etre...it really does not matter if you live or die with it...fly with the Byrds or die with the flies...just don't be a piggy...and regurgitate life...."Believe it or Not"...as for me...Logos

Did you know that Martin Luther who railed for most of his life against church indulgences actually died from his self indulgences of diet and sloth...there is certainly a poetic justice self written there...Beware...the...Dwarf....tee hee

Nice to hear from Ziggy on this thread as well. Glad you are still good. Re the knee, my wife has received two new ones in the past 5 years and is doing great. She is faster than ever on the tennis court!

BTW, there was a member here a few weeks back with questions about TFT. I sent him to you; I trust you are still happy with that choice.

David,

Thanks for the update... Sorry to hear about the Parkinson's... Terrible disease to try to live with.
I have been here since March 2007 and have always followed your posts.

Take care and God Bless!

David! Navy and motorcycle friend. And, I’m sorry to say prostate cancer friend. It hurts my heart to hear of your trials and tribulations. You are one tough guy. I admire you.

Your Friend,
Bill

Great to see your post David!

Sorry to hear about your Parkinson’s.
So good to have an update.

Paul is doing well, PSA still <0.1. Post here much less than I used to but still check in to read once a fortnight or so.

My Navy and Triumph motorcycle buddy. I hate it that you are suffering so much. And I can do nothing to help. It brings tears to my eyes and heart.

Hi David, glad to hear from you, I am still around too, it has been nearly 14 years since I had my diagnosis and RP, I have had on and off Casodex and Hormone therapy every couple of years, which seems to hold my Pca at bay, last PSA was 0.23 which is great, in the meantime my Thyroid decided to play up and cause palpitations and irregular heartbeat, which hospitalised me for 3 days, now on Thyroid tablets, in the meantime, I had a total hip replacement of my left hip, and I am now 80, I wish you well old friend.

Regards Mal.

Hi David/Purgatory. Thank you for the update. I remember you from when I got here back in 2014 or so, and have kept up with your posts in the interim. I just read your post to my wife, just as I sometimes did over the last 6 or 7 years. Yours is one heck of a story. God bless you, David!

Hi David,
I am still around as well. I rarely post anymore but check in with folks from time to time. Some of the others are not fairing as well. Sad. I celebrated 15 years with the beast so far. I still have another 16 to go to fulfill my marriage promise. Sorry about all the crap you must go through. It sucks. As always I send positive thoughts your way. Todd
