    Sunburn Willy was scheduled for surgery today I believe. Anyone hear how that’s went?

    Yesterday I had transurethral prostate resection surgery . Doc says it went well and I should have some long needed relief from my issues . Man , today before I left the hospital I felt pretty good and then the meds wore off . Wow , I've not experienced a kidney stone but the feeling has to be similar . Got phenoxopyridine to help but it hasn't kicked in yet . The pain is fairly intense when I urinate but mostly subsides after a few minutes . Stream is much stronger but darn if I don't feel that I've had a Urethral Rootering .

    Good.  I was just wondering why not just take out the entire mass?

    From my biopsy in February my six samples came back as 3 - 7's , 2 - 8's and a 9 ; all high grade prostate cancer . I'm scheduled for a prostate resection on the 24th and I was also curious why not just take out the whole thing . Oncologist said it was much riskier with a greater chance of complications . He feels that I'm already pushing it having the procedure 10 days after chemo but I was adamant about getting it done and he signed off on it . I really need the relief !

      no one should die of cancer   they invested billions  and billions across the planet   to  cure  C.......d   ,   they  can do the same for cancers  , no doubt in my mind at all .

    Ain't no money in the cure , the money is in the treatment !

     

    I have my second round of chemo tomorrow . Almost $20K a pop but my insurance covers around $2.5K so I've got that going for me 😳 . Been looking at medicaid and their website mentions most hospitals can help getting the ball rolling . Will try to get something started after my infusion is complete .

    y'all are scaring the heck outta me.  i'll be 57 this year.

    If you feel somethings not right get it checked . I procrastinated thinking a lot of guys have the same issues and I'll get around to it . I waited too long and now I have to fight . Don't be like me .

    My goodness. Just diagnosed with a Neuroendocrine (cancer) mass in my Mesentery and constricting my small bowel. I've been having trouble eating and now I know why. Apparently this is rare. Cancer touches everybody.

     

    Good luck , kick it's butt !
