How do you know I haven't already taken care of my clogged arteries? A totally bizare comment....
The links I've read so far recommend a follow up biopsy within 2-5 years. Can you direct me to anything on the 1 year mark?...
Thank you both for adding to my binge reading backlog. It will come in handy for my next meeting with my Urologist in early December. Thank God I appear to have time to digest this all......
I have a friend that started using 15K IU (extreme for most people) per day and after 6 months resulted in symptoms reduced by around 90%. It continues to get better. Even after taking that much, his...
