Sex and incontinence

Surgery vs Radiotherapy for Gleason 9-10.
New study below. I think that surgery was not considered to be a good option for GS=9/10 in 2004. "Can treatment with radical prostatectomy, adjuvant external beam radiotherapy, and androgen deprivation therapy (termed MaxRP) or external beam radiotherapy, brachytherapy, and androgen deprivation therapy

Effectiveness of Radical Prostatectomy Versus External Beam Radiation Therapy Plus Brachytherapy in Patients with High-risk Localized PCa.
New study below. When I opted for Radical Prostatectomy [RP] 14 years ago it was on the basis of 10-year survival (from an online tool that used a half-dozen parameters, including age. Over the years I have heard oncologists saying that RP is no loger the gold standard, but survival studies continue

Time for a change
I have the BRAC 2 gene and have had a mastectomy and full hysterectomy to give me the best chance at a long and health life but realised that despite having major surgery I haven’t got my backside up off the couch and am so unfit - it dawned on me how ridiculous this was. So here I am on day two and

FYI Re medical marijuana
For those who are curious about this option, here is my feedback. I recently received a medical marijuana card in MA. Recreational marijuana is now available too in MA but the dispensary told me the recreational items aren’t as broad as medical. I bought a vape pen but — just like back in college when

Ear pain and vasculitis
Yes, vasculitis can cause ear problems in the outer ear and great pain. It can cause inner ear problems too. The immunosuppressant drugs you need for treatment can make ear infections worse. But the vasculitis meds like rituxan or medical marijuana greatly reduce the outer ear pain.

Benefits of THC and CBD marijuana for GPA Vasculitis
My wife has been using medical marijuana in THC and CBD form for about a year for maintenance with gpa vasculitis and it has controlled her illness very well where other drugs like azathioprine made her very sick. It is a godsend, and her physician is very surprised. It makes sense, because marijuana

Against the clock!
Mr PB30 i have been informed that I need to lose 6 stone before I can have a gaul bladder removal operation. I had an operation last year to remove 30 gaul stones from my bike duct. Anyway the clock is ticking. Say I manage to lose 2 lbs a week: that's 42 weeks! I may have to undergo the first operation

Latent Gleason Number 5.
New Japanese study. I don't know what percentage of U.S. men are diagnosed with Gleason score 4+5, 5+4 or 5+5, based on a biopsy, but in this Japanese cohort ~11% were 'GP5 positive'. However, ~25% (!!!) were 'latent GP5' "absence of GP5 in the biopsy specimen, but presence of GP5 in the prostatectomy
