PSA vs Testosterone plot has large scatter, but still confirms Morgentaler's Saturation Model.
Here are two plots comparing PSA values to Testosterone levels taken from a pair of large data sets. What is striking is the large amount of scatter in the individual data from both datasets, with factors of 2-6 X deviations from the average (or median) values. The upper plot has N = 255 data points

radiation damage to the bladder
my husband has had 4 rather benign treatments of Pluvicto at the recommended 6 week intervals. Treatment #5 is Schilz’s in about 10 days. All of a sudden he is having hematuria and bladder spasms. Can anyone tell me what kinds of treatments are used for radiation burns or irritation to the bladder? Thanks

Abiraterone and Breathlessness
After around 7 months on Abiraterone, I developed high blood pressure and quite bad irregular heartbeats. My Oncologist took me off Abiraterone immediately, and I was subsequently diagnosed with Atrial Fibrillation. After seeing a Cardiology Consultant, I was prescribed Bisoporol and started back on

Spam me with any stories of hope or guidance for my Dad - Gleason 10, bone mets in spine

Psma-pet scan results
PCa Warriors: I am on Active Surveillance(AS )with one core GL6 at 10%. I am part of a clinical trial that uses PSMA-pet scan to track progression. I guess the goal is to catch progression early and maybe avoid biopsies. The results are given below. Two things grabbed my attention from the report.
