Twenty years ago my doctor urged me to urge my husband to get a
vasectomy in order for our family to avoid the risks associated with
pregnancy in middle age. We weren't planning to have any more
children; and according to the doctor, it was a much easier procedure

My surgery was in Oct. 2000.  The PSA readings for the first 2+ years
were <.01.  When my PSA went from .03 in April '03 to to .05 on

I will be having surgery this April 17 after being diagnosed with prostate
cancer. My Gleeson score 6 (2+4). No symptoms it was picked up via a biopsy
after my PSA fluctuated from 5.2 then 4.7 then 5.7 last year. I will be 66
