Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Prostate Cancer / August 2004Residual Cancer
I posted a couple of weeks ago about having some residual prostate cancer radiated 2 years after my RRP. I'm about 1/3 of the way through and I'm starting to have some mild side effects. Diarrhea and a little pain when I urinate, which I do more frequently. The worst was when I was lying on the table with my trousers and briefs down and one of the female clerks walks in. I don't know if she was curious or what. But it was embarrassing. :) Gary Nichols >Subject: Residual Cancer >From: Gary Nichols garynick61@highstream.net >Date: 8/23/2004 7:06 AM Central Daylight Time >Message-id: <83nji09c4rnv6b8krr9unddov9q5f1i0r3@4ax.com> Well! ;-} They had us wear those hospital gowns- lightweight blue cotton that close in the back- most of the radiation technicians were female. >I posted a couple of weeks ago about having some residual prostate >cancer radiated 2 years after my RRP.

When I went for my Biopsy, with butt up and pants down......A nice lady and a blond lady, was taking the samples from the Dr. The nurse dropped one sample, and the Dr. said, "Dumb Blond" you will have to get another snap and click........sample. Anyway...I figure women and men by the time they reach our age know every part, organ, and smell..... So in-other words. Don't worry about it. Just be glad that a nurse, man or woman is coming in to help you! I remember when I had to get shots for erection......hum..... A male nurse helped, and it was a bit tough....... He showed me how to do the injection....... Next day I came in and did it by myself. Yeow.....memories..... Do not get embarrassed. All the people that help you will also need help some day.
