I recommend you call Dr. Dattoli for a free phone consult. He is the best RO in the business with independently verified, published stats to prove it:...
Hey Skypilot56, I have had insomnia all my life. The best prescription I have ever taken for it is Trazodone, an off label use since it is an antidepressant. I read somewhere that Trazodone is the...
I forgot to ad that trazodone is dirt cheap and there are cheaper sources for cabergoline. You will need to search the web for cabergoline since it is a cash cow. You can find it for $1 per pill,...
I know it is rough to recover after a prostatectomy. I have had surgery and SRT with triple hormone blockade. It took me well over a year in each case to regain potency (with viagra and trazodone...
Last call for diet information. Sorry guys, but I only made my email available for a week. I have had to abandon email accounts in the past due to volumes of spam and strange activity on my computer....
Here are some studies of interest regarding Metformin and PCa. Dr. Myers and Dr. Dattoli both use Metformin as part of their treatment protocols. I have been on 500 mg of Metformin twice daily since...
Sorry, I must not have entered my profile update correctly. It should work now....
I have made my email address available in my profile. I will email the diet and supplement info to all who request it. They are the Dattoli-Myers diet recommendations....
You might try getting a prescription for Cabergoline. Cabergoline suppresses prolactin. Prolactin is not good for erections or orgasms. It works for me. From Wikipedia: "Off-label It has at times...
cashlessclay, Thank you for your posts regarding diet. My diet is 95% in correlation with yours. And it works for me too. Please PM me if you want specific diet recommendations from a world renown...
I recently switched my medication for insomnia to Trazodone, largely because one of it's side effects in a very small group of users is priapism (erections that last for more than 4 hours.) The...
He is not in Orlando, but I highly recommend Dr. Dattoli who practices in Sarasota FL. He has the highest published (independently verified by the University of Washington) "cure" rate in the world...
I had a PSA of .048 when I had my SRT. My PSA fell into the "unstable" category according to a study I can't find a link to now. Basically, the study indicated patients like me had a 35% probability...
I have insomnia and had been using Elavil as a sleep aid. Elavil contributes to ED. I learned that Trazadone is also effective to treat insomnia AND it contributes to healthy erections! In fact, I've...
Viagra and the other PDE5 inhibitors only address blood flow. Getting an erection (and orgasms) starts in your brain. It is a very complex process that depends on chemicals. If you are deficient in...
I struggled with ED after my surgery. Dependable erections took 2 years post-op. I struggled again after radiation and 15 months of triple hormone blockade. That recovery also took about 2 years...
I found this presentation by Dr Michael Dattoli on aspects of lymph node positive PCa very informative. It is a few years old and, as such, it is dated in some of the imaging techniques discussed....
My story: at age 59, I had a prostatectomy with clean pathology. After 3 years, my PSA started to rise. I had IGRT radiation treatments and 15 months of Lupron and estrogen patches. I also took (and...
In my last post I forgot to say that Dr. Dattoli has evaluated proton therapy as a treatment for PCa and can state the reasons why he believes DART is better. Best of luck!...
Why not get a free phone consultation from one of the best ROs for PCa: Dr. Dattoli in Sarasota FL? He is a PCa specialist who, as he states "lives and breathes prostate cancer treatment." He uses a...
A correction to my last post; my PSA hit.048 when my Urologist recommended I see an RO. Sorry for my mistake....
I highly recommend Dr. Dattoli. Like you, my PSA started rising after surgery. When it hit .028, my urologist recommend radiation therapy. I was originally diagnosed as PT2cN0M0, Gleason 6. Dr....
George, I found an error in my previous post. Dr. Dattoli's biochemical failure was defined using PSA >0.2 and nadir +2 at last followup, not PSA <.02 and nadir +2. Sorry. Best of luck to you....
George, If you want a free second opinion consultation, Dr. Dattoli (or his partner Dr Sorace) will review your PSA history and your biopsy results and tell you how he would treat you. He has...
I had a DaVinci RP at Huntsville Hospital in AL. The doctor did a good job as far as side effects is concerned, and I had a clean pathology report...but some cancer cells were left where he sewed the...
Here's my experience with PCa, hope it helps. I am retired from the Army and used Tricare Prime for DaVinci surgery and salvage radiation therapy. If you choose surgery, I agree with those who said...
