I was so thrilled to get it out!! Didn't hurt at all, no bleeding with urination. But probably the best part was that as the Uro took it out, he got peed on. MADE MY DAY!!...
Only WingDings in here....
I agree mattam! They are very good, and their schedule was not full of fluff. They played KU, Iowa, WV, Virginia, and Auburn. And in the NCAA tournie they played OK, Creighton, USC, UCLA Not too...
Wooo!! Baylor baby!! A team that killed my Cats 3 times by a combined total of 85 points, one of those by 48, totally handled the Zags!! Go Big 12!!...
I agree with Prato. Also, your rise in PSA is pretty slow, ask an Oncologist, preferably one that specializes in Urologic cancers. Before you get an advanced scan, make sure your Onco trusts them. My...
It looks to me like your PSADT is more than a year, and therefore not considered critical. Mine is two weeks, if yours goes under one year, then the Docs ears will perk up....
Weekly, better!! Also, perfect timing for the next one, I get tested earlier in the day....
Wait, what? Why?...
Woooo! What a start to the MLB season for my Royals. We beat the Rangers 14-10! We are tied with the Tigers for first in the AL Central. Even if it's only short lived, we can be happy today. Many are...

It's when your prostate cancer ignores the fact that your T-level is really low. Which means ADT treatment is failing. And your PCa starts to produce PSA again....
Having voted now, my being undetectable was based on an assay with only one decimal place. ie <0.1 Every since I switched to two decimal places I have been detectable....
Well, Lupron(ADT) is pretty variable in how long it will work. 2-3 years is the average. I myself have been on intermittent ADT for 7 1/2 years and it's finally wearing out. There are men who have...
F8 -- EXACTLY Good luck on everyone's retirement! Enjoy life, enjoy family, may God bless all of you!...
My Urologist offered both options but when he said he thought surgery offered a possible cure, I jumped at it. And note, I got in for surgery just 4 weeks after biopsy. And that delay I was told was...
Dusty, WELCOME! I agree with everyone and especially those that said get a guided biopsy (MRI). Good luck Brother!...
Thanks guys for all the jokes!! They made my Friday!!...
CONGRATULATIONS Skeeter!!!!!!!!!!!!!...
Hmm, my bad, that article popped into my news feed just yesterday. I didn't check dates....
Because my Aunt Hazel lives near Indianola, I will route on your Lady Hawkeyes!!...
Here's the link to the announcement that they will be making an announcement. uhhhhhhhhhhhhh LU177 Announcement Unfortunately I started to read it, and one of the first things it states is: Men with...
I was just pondering that loss by LowRents. How sweet it is. J Gleason Their greatest NCAA tournament loss ever, 34 points. On the dark side, my Cats has had yet another player enter the transfer...
It's different for every man. When I first started, I read the average is three years. I've been at it for over 7, and I just now might becoming resistant. My next PSA test in 3 weeks will tell....
Oregon and Creighton win, LowRents (KU) loses. It was a good day. I love Dana Altman the coach of Oregon. He's former coach of both Creighton and KSU. The A-holes at KSU administration fired him long...
Welcome back Brother! Your words of wisdom on this forum have always been welcome. Peace Brother!...
I'm routing for the Hawkeyes or any Big12 team except that team in LowRents. Well, and the Cinderellas....
I didn't watch any BBall this weekend, but I wish I did. All the upsets. Down went Illinois, OSU, Florida, and I think Michigan I'm a fan of Cinderellas so go ORU Golden Eagles!!...
Clocknut, Nothing actually downloads until you choose to read it. Kindle keeps track of it. Once you have read one, remove it and download the next. This is what I do. This is the Way! ;)...
When I'm not binge watching Blue Bloods or Sons of Anarchy, I started rereading The Hobbit. A friend of mine game me a LOTR and Hobbit vinyl covered set....
Micah, This is an awesome report! I am very happy for you two! Blessed is the word! Take care brother!...
Hate to say it, but you are incurable like myself. "PetScan found nodules in both lungs Biopsy stage 4 PSA 1.03" All stage 4 are considered incurable...
81, I am so sorry for your loss. Your grief is beyond comprehension. May you and your other son find peace. May the good Lord comfort you! Frank...
I forgot to mention this. Illinois BBall is rolling big time. Their coach is the one a lot of KSU fans wanted before Weber but our AD chose to ignore him. BTW we still want him! He's a former KSU...
My Mildcats play their last game before Conference championship tournament. We have had the worst season in 70 years, let me say that again 70 YEARS . If we don't get rid of Coach Weber KSU...
Yes, the 2.0 is just a guideline. Both the Oncologists I've seen have determined that I have recurrence. And that's because every time I go off of ADT, then after several months it starts to rise...
When I grew up we had larger dogs, loved them. But when I was seven, I was cornered by an ankle biter for about 20 minutes. I was scared of them for a very long time. But growing up and getting...

We have a beagle and every time I come home he has to sniff my breath. I guess he's checking up on what I've been eating. He also rid our yard of grubs. Our first fall he dug a lot of holes searching...
Sorry to hear that. How do you know it's the lymph nodes and not bones?...

I just have to say a few things! Dogs are amazing! And I typically like dogs more than a lot of people. Dogs don't judge you harshly unless you are truly E V I L. Otherwise they love you!...
Todd, Well said!! Our low was -17 last week, now we are in the 60s. Either Paul or James in the Bible said that they were thankful for the tribulations in their life. I absolutely agree! How I think...
Dave, Welcome again! Carry over conversation from the initial thread. I'm on ADT for the last eight years because everytime I go off of it, my PSA starts to shoot up dramatically. One of the terms...
Dave, Welcome to the group!! My initial numbers were about the same as yours albeit a bit higher. 12/12 positive G7s and G8s biopsy. 1 LN positive. Then I was upgraded to G9 after surgery. I've been...
I checked yesterday with Blue Cross, they will cover both RELUGOLIX and Xtandi at 100%.. That is because they are both oral cancer meds....
Duck2, Thanks!! But a few months back when I talked to BCBS, they told me oral cancer drugs are paid 100%. I'll of course call them again to confirm. I'm not up to paying that kind of money. And if...
Here's an announcement about it. It has less/fewer cardiac consequences than Lupron. Relugolix ...
YES, thanks mattam!! New drug Relugolix...
