My MO told me to talk to my Urologist for plumbing issues. I started with a feeling of urgency, a few months later increased frequency and then serious difficulty at times going. We ended up doing a...
Recently had an episode with blood and clots in my urine. Clots became large and hard to pass over the weekend so I went to ER. After tests and discussion with on-call Uro, they stated that blood in...
Thanks for all the great input and practical advice. Lots to think about and I guess I was a bit of a Martha. I will focus on what's important and continue to believe that "I have cancer but cancer...
My dear wife provides the best support anyone could ask for but the one area that we can't discuss is the end game of Terminal Prostate Cancer. I fully intend to be around for a while, but I know...
Thanks for this, I found myself going down a mental path the last couple of days I don't want to be on, this helped in more ways than I can express. I have cancer and choose to not let cancer have me!...
As a new guy, I believe you have it about right. Partners/caregivers need the ability to come here and get what you provide. Before finding this forum I visited the many "support" pages on facebook...
Checking in and thanks to all the great advice and support I have received. Got my first undetectable about a month ago, now on a 3 month recheck unless something changes, I am asymptomatic and...
I agree with "In the Shop". It's scary the more you research it, that the Standard American Diet with the USDA's, Big Pharma and Big Food support may be the problem. "The Link below is just one of...
Thanks for the tip, great information and the comments about drinking lots of water with Zytiga in the "collective experiences" has really helped me....

Thanks for all the replies. My thoughts now are to go to the KU Medical Center for a second opinion and see if they are more "prostate cancer" aware and can offer the docetaxel or Zytiga options. I'm...
Here is what I think I know so far, any recommendations on what I'm missing are welcome. The amount of information and data available is overwhelming (including the NCCN guidelines) Uro and I agreed...
Have not read that one but will put it on the list. I got started prior to my diagnosis with "Keto Clarity_ Your Definitive Guide to the Benefits of a Low-Carb, High-Fat Diet" by Jimmy Moores and...
Thanks GoBucks. Yes the Lupron is with my URO. I am scheduled to see an MO....
Hello all and thanks in advance for all the information available here. What I found out after CT, biopsy and bone scan is that I have Stage 4 with mets, Gleason 9, PSA at 19. Starting Lupron. I...
Got the initial blast two weeks ago that I have PC after a Biopsy, so I'm new to the club. Uro stated it was an aggressive type and scheduled me for a bone scan which I had a couple of days ago. My...
