Regarding myself and cancer
« on: March 22, 2012, 10:32:06 AM »
it's been brought to my attention that there was a thread about me having colon cancer...not true.

While I don't share most of my private life for obvious reasons, I appreciate the concern from people in my well being

As most of you know, my father recently passed away ( Dec 26) from advanced prostate cancer...he was diagnosed  about 13 years ago

One year ago, I was diagnosed with the beginning stages of prostate cancer, and the Gleason score indicated it was pretty aggressive...just like my fathers.

My father elected to go the radiation route, as it was the newest treatment back then...obviously, it didn't work

My choice was fairly obvious, prostate removal, with the newest technology...divinci robot assisted radical prostatectomy...which I did.

Surgery was successful, I'm cancer free ( for now)....and a series of follow up PSA's will let us know if I remain cancer free...

I thank God I was able to heal quickly in order to help my father and family through  what would be, his last 6 months with us...

First PSA resulted in an undetectable score ( best case scenario)....I'm due for another one now....

All good boys....

PHEW

Was worried there for a bit Chick!

Good to hear everything is well!

What are the cons of removing your prostate though?

I mean the way we are living now plus medical science means that in 50 years when the average 40yr old is 90, the quality of life is going to be far greater.Theres even talk that there could be a way to reverse the aging process and live forever (assuming no accidents) within the next 50 years.

Exactly because 90 now in 50 years will be 140.

Glad to hear your "clean" Bob.

For anyone interested theres a ton of projects expected to have big results witihin the next 10 years, 2 off the top of my head are one where they are working on reversing aging in mice then to humans and another, a russian Billionaire has hundreds working on transferring a human brain in to robot body, crazy but true.

Good news! Chickster's positive prognosis means Basile's embitterment will continue. We all take comfort in that.

HONEST QUESTION BOB.  What is lost/gained from prostate removal?  I mean how does it affect your life afterwards, what types of things do you have to worry about.  Why do we even need prostates?
