Well folks, as some may know I don't drop in much anymore - but this is 11 years after my Dx so I did look around. Of course once I saw Tudpock's post on BT I thought I'd add my own stats and...
Just dropping in to share my 10-year update - continue to be "undetectable" (see signature) and no SE's. Thanks again to all of the brothers (and sisters) out here who took care of me when I first...
I also want to offer my condolences Tami - may your father rest in peace. . . . Thanks for sharing this thread that my goodness started some 7 years ago, and also for letting any newbies out here...
Hey guys - so Michael T, of course I remember you! Hope all is well and great to hear you're still out here paying if forward. Pratoman, yep, I also remember our conversations and connects, and also...
Been awhile, but I wanted to drop in and share my latest for those that might be considering LDR BT as a treatment option. Annual PSA came back at 0.01, so yeah still undetectable. Stats are in my...
8 years undetectable with 0 SE's....
So I haven't been out here in a year or so, dropped in and saw this and am deeply saddened. 142 you were one of the Mods that welcomed me with open arms, and helped me to keep my stuff together and...
Hey brother, I'm not out here much, but I saw this article while traipsing through LinkedIn. There is no better testimonial than this one - yeah, a true rock star for all. Yoop...
Hey fulltlt, congrats and not surprised....
@Pontiacwild - "Being in a decision making mode at this time, I'm somewhat curious why you decided on the seeds. I'm not second guessing, and the results no doubt speak for themselves. I'm so very...
It's now been 6 years since I was treated with LDR Brachytherapy and things continue to be great. My latest PSA came back in that undetectable range at 0.05. I am just simply living a normal life as...
It's been 5 years since I was treated with LDR Brachytherapy and things continue to be great and just simply living a normal life as I just had my yearly PSA and follow up. I would continue to...
Now I recall why I left. My very first"peek" in several months. Wow....
Hello Susan, just thought I'd stop in and offer my sincere congratulations to you and Jeff, this is just awesome especially given the "bounce" he had and now clearly past that! My very, very best to...
Hey Todd, as I'm not here much at all anymore I'm not aware of the thread and post that caused you to start this thread - however I can certainly relate.... I finally backed away due to similar...
^^^^^LIKE!^^^^^ (;...
Thought I'd drop in briefly to share some good news - to encourage the new guys. Just returned from my 4-year follow-up with Dr. Brian Moran at the Chicago Prostate Cancer Center, and my PSA...
Greetings Antonia. First let me say that I am very impressed with the amount of due diligence you guys have done - that's the absolute best approach so again kudos to you both! I used to spend a...
Thanks Bill; I'm really hardly ever out here anymore but drop by at times. Of course I would be very happy to talk with and or meet up with your brother. Feel free to give him my e-mail....
Hi Bill; just wanted to reach out to let you know that I'm sorry to hear about your brother's change. As others have said he's fortunate to have someone like you, that has not only gone down the path...
Indeed Bro, "The Good Stuff"...........
Props to you yet again Sonny for setting the bar for the right stuff. . . . . Enjoy!...
The only thing that surprises me about this Bro is that you weren't voted #1. Having said that what a great and deserved acknowledgement of the hope and inspiration you have provided to so many....
Congrats to your Dad for another year of great results with his PCa. Sorry to hear about the colon cancer Dx and hoping that treatment goes well also. Best to you both....
Thanks jym, I did that one primarily to help the newly DX'd to slow down and be informed. Browntrout - yep, I'm getting anxious to get a line in the water back home! How about you?...
Congratulations and not surprised. Here's to more of the same in your future....
Thanks Clock, yes it was just a really great time meeting and spending some time with him. And yep, all is well here for sure and hope the same is true on your end. We should plan another supper get...
Yesterday I had the awesome opportunity to hook up with Todd1963 over a burger and a beer in downtown Chicago. Just as amazing in person as he is out here. For those of you with advanced PCa I would...
Congrats on your great results Racquet, and also your choice of treatment. Given your age and PCa statistics I think you went with the best option, and should continue to expect great results in...
Lidat, good to see you came back, ditto to Prato as you're both good for this place. For me, clearly BT and would do it the same way again. The back and forth going on right now about can I make a...
Just got back from my 3-1/2 year follow up post LDR BT. Things continue to go extremely well, normal in fact. PSA is 0.06. I decided to do this post and aim it at the newly diagnosed, and as part of...
Another great, positive post Bro - thanks for sharing and yeah with you it's all about the positive Karma, and IMHO that has much to do with your success. Keep on!...
I agree Sonny, great news indeed from what you've shared! Let me know how it goes tomorrow and my best to you and Sherry....

Bro, you continue to be the Rock Star that provides so much hope and inspiration to so many..... And yeah, a bull named Fu Man Chu, one of my favorites..........
Hello Susan, and thanks for sharing this great news about Jeff! Congratulations to you both, and yes it seems like he's bounced his way towards nadir! I don' post here anymore, but do look in every...
Logo makes a point I agree with. In the past, and now, there are the protected few....
TA, thanks for reaching out to Dr. Grimm with your concerns - appreciate you doing that as in the overall picture it should be a positive gesture. As medical professionals are prohibited from posting...
Clock, I'm understanding precisely what you're saying and feel the same way, I too have obviously moved away from HW for the same reasons. This type of atmosphere is allowed to go on to the detriment...
Well said browntrout. Yes, there will always be differing opinions - but to drop to the level of bad-mouthing an acknowledged expert that has outstanding results in a particular field to me is...
TA, I replied to your e-mail. In addition to other thoughts I also suggested that if you have input for Dr. Grimm that you share it with him as he has openly offered. CaliJR, awesome post and I...
Read. Comprehend. It is not an "axiom." (Phrase deleted)...
Jesus NKinney, really? If I (BT) say "Black" then do you (RRP) promise to say "White?" Why does it have to go there? "I was quite certain that he meant it in the context of this well known axiom:...
I have put this valuable tool link out here in the past, as have others including most recently. As is often the case this tool has been challenged by some. In order to address these challenges I...
"Sigh. Data is useful, as long as you know who is collecting it, sorting it, and sharing it." I'll add just a touch to those Halbert: "As long as you also consider the very biased 'opinion' of some...
Thanks for sharing Allen, great report. I consulted with DeManes back in my decision making process as he is clearly "the best" at the HDRBT approach. Not surprised by the great results....
Well said Thurman, and Paul too! And Stix, some of the NFL players DO recognize Movember, I know the Packer's Aaron Rodgers for one - I hope some day the NFL will wake up and greet September the same...
Holy crap Batman, I miss hitting HW for two days and this 4-page thread shows up! Sorry I missed this yesterday Prato, but of course I would have been and am in the camp of that not being a real...
Deanna - may he now rest in peace, and may you find peace..... My sincere condolences, thoughts and prayers....
Thanks John T and hey Big Mac, interesting you brought up "The Only Way I Know" - as you probably know that IS my song/mantra - and it came on XM radio right about 5 minutes away from my 3-year...
