After you're finished with the ad hominem attacks, I hope you turn your attention to the suggestions I made for improvement of this forum....
I hope to see many of you on the prostate cancer forum that I am moving to: Because of the new moderator, Pratoman, I no longer feel safe on Healingwell. He arbitrarily erases my posts - some of...
mattamx- It's not moderators (plural) it's one moderator, who has incidentally just taken it upon himself to lock a thread that was critical of his actions. Moderators singly have too much power on...
JNF- On that site, you can click "follow post" to follow a thread (similar to subscribing to a thread on this site) and you can follow a poster by clicking on his name and then clicking "+ follow." I...
Andrew- That's because he didn't delete your posts....

Compiler- Read what I wrote - it was about meta-posts, and there is no better exemplar. Not testing the mods - just explaining what I mean by a meta-post....
Yes! I very much agree. I call them "meta-posts" -posts not about the topic raised in the original post, but about other's posts instead. This is different from agreeing or disagreeing with sides of...
Thanks for all of your good thoughts and good wishes. I haven't given up on this site completely, but there would have to be changes. I thought I would give myself through Rosh Hashanah to cool down....
It sounds like docetaxel is an appropriate next step. In trials, it added 1 1/2 years to survival of men newly diagnosed with multiple metastases....
Emmylu - I think that is wise of you to not make assumptions. Bone scans pick up arthritis and old injuries. All you can do is wait until after you've seen the radiologist's reports. That will tell...
