Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Prostate Cancer / March 2005i heard my first commercial ad for treatment of prostate cancer.
it was on the radio. it was for the robot surgery and the hospital is in the next state that is doing the advertisement. the ad was stressing the fear of a man when he hears he has prostate cancer, and how just a few millimeters could mean the difference between incontinence and impotence. that the new robot unit that this hospital will increase their chances of recovery. call.............. anybody else hearing ads like this one in your area??? ~ 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 What a bunch of Bullshit..... What happened if you moved, or burped. or what... Who Drives the Robot? A Dr. has to tell the Robot where to go and what to do. Anyway, If we have Robots that can do this Prostate Removal for us without any trouble. Go for it! Why cant we balance the budget? I prefer a real Dr.... I guess I am old fashion..... Good wishes........

I wish I'd had that option readily available. I.P. > What a bunch of Bullshit..... > What happened if you moved, or burped. or what... [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] >> invariably fatal.

The pilot was sitting in a cubicle using remote controls to fly the plane. That made me feel better about my grandson that spends most of his non-school waking hours in front of a Nintendo unit of some kind (he has a portable one for in the car, and each grandparent has a machine so he can bring his games and play at any house). When he arrives he fly's by me heading for the Nintendo (not sure if he knows who I am?). I used to worry, but now I know he has a bright future in the Air Force. > Uhh . . . the robot IS guided by a surgeon, probably one who grew up on > video games.

Do you trust your computer controlled car to propel you at 70 MPH? Or the computer-controlled green light as you approach an intersection with an 18-wheeler coming to the same intersection from your right? Or, do you climb aboard an airplane? Considering what I have seen in 50 short years, I wouldn't be surprised to see a robotic surgeon in my next 50.

In ten years it will probably evolve to the highest rate of disease in men. Follow the money! |
