Prostate cancer is a disease in which cancer develops in the prostate, a gland in the male reproductive system. Cancer occurs when cells of the prostate mutate and begin to multiply out of control. These cells may spread (metastasize) from the prostate to other parts of the body, especially the bones and lymph nodes. Prostate cancer may cause pain, difficulty in...
My hubby went for his regular check up at our cancer clinic. He had his PSA blood test done as usual in time for the appt.
We were really shocked when the dr said it was 10. A few months after his treatment it went down to 1 & we were warned that the next one could be up again & that with some men it did that for some reason & that science could not figure it out yet, but we were also told that it shd settle down again. That one was 5. Now this test as of a week ago is 10. So we're going back to the biopsy route & then who knows where from there.
I'm wondering if there's anyone out there that has any thoughts at all on this. Thanks so very much.

This isn't really bipolar related but there is never anyone on the parenting groups, this is the most active group I've been in.My 6yr old son has really bad seasonal allergies and they're in full force right now. He gets a terrible cough; he coughs all day and all night, making it hard for him to sleep, and his nose runs.I've tried every allergy medicine, OTC and RX, and none of them affect his...

Is anyone here allergic to Sulfa that is currently taking Diamox? I have been diagnosed with IH now for almost 2 years. I am allergic to Sulfa drugs meaning that my throat will swell up so my Neurologist put me on Topamax. I was suffering from major loud whoosing noises and the topamax helped that but everyday I still hear those mainly between 6 - 12 pm. I am at my wits end and have not went...
Please do everything you can to check for cancer. I know 10 is over the psa that it should be (1-4) is normal. My dad had 700 psa I was shocked and all his Dr said was come back in 3 months . The Dr did give him pills and a Lupron shot. I knew when we walked out he had cancer. Well 3 months went by and dads psa was 100. The Dr said go home home and kiss your wife you are ok wrong. We had a bone scan and it showed were all the cancer was. In short what I am say don't take no for a answer just keep asking make them to explain. I am not just talking about prostate cancer any cancer. My husband fought cancer for 13 yrs. Just don't give up , and don't think everyone is right keep asking question. My prayers arer with you.......Di
Stand by your hubby who is worried beyond belief by now.
It can be a good thing to stick together.
Positive outlooks help too.
My hubby was worried that I would be upset but then we talked it out during his treatments. It made us stronger as a couple.
He is a 3 year survivor.
