Male Cystoscopy Experience
After passing a stone in my urine I was scheduled to have a cystoscopy to check the inside of my bladder. I’d read countless reviews and became more and more concerned after reading some of the horror stories online. It seems that people are quick to jump on forums when the experience is bad, but less

Advice: Cyberknife treatment of prostate AFTER TURP and Axumin scan
Just got back from yet another Urologist, seems no wants to place markers in my prostate after I had a TURP for RT treatment. The reasoning they say is the risk of prostate radiation side effects ( incontinence urine and bowel, needing to cath myself, etc...) that will last my lifetime is too great,

Hi Everyone. I am the best friend of someone diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer
My best friend has been diagnosed with Advanced prostate cancer almost 2 months ago. Gleason is 8 (4+4) with bone mets in femur, pelvis, ribs, and humerus. He has 2 lymph nodes on his kidney and possibly near the throat. He started Firmagon and another injection to prevent bone loss 3 weeks ago.

My cancer has morphed to treatment-emergent small-cell neuroendocrine prostate cancer.
Hi Guys, I had a TURP in July and the pathology report came back that my prostate cancer cells were small-cell neuroendocrine type, while my original diagnosis was adenocarcinoma Gleason 10. The cancer has grown up the side of my bladder, which has caused a bladder bleed which needed a repair under

Seeking protective country and good Health Insurance
Hello Friends, I was posting sometimes back that I had surgery
of
coarctation
of
the
aorta
and I have bicuspid aorta . Well, I am feeling better but I can get tired very fast from any small effort. I thought maybe is psychological because I am not happy, like anxiety and so much stress.

Cyberknife is in my future
Hey Guys, I have been advised (by my Uro and Radiation Oncologist and Medical Oncologist) that I need to get some local control as I haven't had a radiation to the prostate before. I was diagnosed Gleason 10 2.5 years ago and I've been through chemo (Docetaxel) ADT (Zoladex implants 3 monthly). Since
