Where in being without metastasis means "Watchful Waiting"
Almost immediate surgery to remove the prostate via robotically assisted
prostatectomy
. Clean in the margins. 1 year later rising PSA so 2010 May to July 13 weeks RT 5 times a week.

Diagnosed in July
Chose to see a surgical urologist, and decided to go with
prostatectomy
....scheduled for September. Knowing my father had prostate cancer, I should’ve have had regular physical and screenings earlier (like at 40-45)! I’m stupid and I’m still feeling guilty about my stupidity.

Diet and Cancer Progression . . . Fruit
I had a
prostatectomy
and SRT, recurrence 2013, Gleason 4=3 biopsy, 3+3 pathology, and a PSADT of 7 months. PSA's since January 2019 - - - 0.442, 0.435, 0.416, 0.427, 0.424. I call this a 'cancer neutral" or a "cancer stable" diet.

ED Management: Trimix vs Sildenafil
I'm taking a 20mg Sildenafil pill once a day (wait, there's a caveat) per Surgeon's recommendation following robotic
prostatectomy
in Oct 2018. This Rx has had no impact on my ability to achieve strong erections.

PSMA PET finds more cancer than Axumin
For guys with rising PSA, post-
prostatectomy
... This is for the Ga-68-PSMA-11 PET/CT scan. It was especially good at detecting cancer in the pelvic lymph nodes.

Active treatment (surgery, radiation) vs Active Monitoring?
I started asking lots of questions, and the oncology nurse sent me a 10-year study that followed 3 groups of men randomly assigned to get RP (radical
prostatectomy
), EBRT (external beam rad therapy), and nothing (AM, Active Monitoring).

Incontinence after prostatectomy
I've tried myriad pads and diapers and the designs and fabric all cause awful chafing and irritation at the tip of penis. Anyone have a product or solution? Tks.

Bathmate anyone?
Has anyone use this for getting their penis back in shape after a radical
prostatectomy
? My surgery was done laparoscopically with the robot and I feel like I probably want to start trying this sooner rather than later.

interesting article in JAMA
A total of 16.4% of the patients had undergone
prostatectomy
or received radiotherapy for localized disease, and 10.7% had received previous docetaxel therapy; 62.7% had high-volume disease, and 37.3% had low-volume disease.

Seafood Lunch with an OLD friend, Prostate Treatment choices (revisited) and "what would the urologist do?" (differently than he'd advise?)
For this reason, I plan to have a robotic radical
prostatectomy
early in February 2019. I believe that the surgical removal of my prostate offers the best chance for cure.

Low T could hasten time to post-RP biochemical recurrence.
"The authors sought to examine the relationship between free testosterone and biochemical recurrence in radical
prostatectomy
patients.

Blood pressure medications and prostate cancer
In conclusion, antihypertensive drugs are associated with increased risk of PCa death and starting of ADT after radical
prostatectomy
. An exception are ATR-blockers which are associated with better PCa survival and lowered risk of starting ADT.

First tests after treatment & what to ask oncologist...
First diagnosed Gleason 7 confined to prostate in 2010 resulting in
prostatectomy
then no further treatment until now. Gradual rise in psa to 0.8 last year resulted in a psma pet scan which was clear. Another rise to 1.4 and another pet scan in February this year and bang spinal met, stage 4.
