Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Prostate Cancer / November 2004Post surgery PSA - good news!
Hello all, It has been ages since I posted. I've been traveling and just got back to the good ole USA a week or so ago. Allen got his post surgery PSA (3 month) and it is .04 (yay!!!) My friend Rene's husband just had his surgery yesterday, and he came through fine. While the pathology isn't in yet, it doesn't look like it has spread. Lots of good news, huh? Debbie (wife of Allen, 3+7, 8.6 PSA pre surgery) hi debbie - keep the good news coming. that's great news for you guys. may those .04's just keep rolling in. :) ~ curtis knowledge is power - growing old is mandatory - growing wise is optional "Many more men die with prostate cancer than of it. Growing old is invariably fatal. Prostate cancer is only sometimes so." http://community.webtv.net/PALMER_ENT/doc That's really great news. Congratulations on your success! jimhoney standard RRP age 52, cured, no significant aftereffects > Hello all, > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Debbie (wife of Allen, 3+7, 8.6 PSA pre surgery) Good news, indeed, Debbie!

Sounds like the best possible news. Alan |
