Thanks for the following:

First, your Bio and your Lynparza treatment(s).

Second, to finally find out your real name is not Mr. Scruffy. But damn how do you pronounce John html?

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

The article says you were dx’d with MCRPc after surgery and when your PSA started to rise. This is not correct as HT worked for years. Only when the HT stopped working were you resistant.
