danasgoodstuff Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 I was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer - I'm writing thsi mainly to encourage all you guys to get your boy parts checked out on a regular basis. i know the procedures can be unpleasant, but my PSA was only slightly elevated and Kaiser was NOT pushing for further exam or biopsy but I went ahead and did it and as a result I'll get to see my girl grow up.

jazzkrow Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 Glad they caught it early, Dana! Hang in there.... Quote
JohnS Posted March 17, 2011 Report Posted March 17, 2011 Let me second that. Don't ignore the symptoms. Letting things go can lead to serious complications (as in my case)even if it's benign enlargement. Best wishes Dana. Quote
