Just an FYI in case you haven't seen this. WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Researchers have found a way to target cancer cells by injecting tiny particles that will attack only the diseased cells while leaving healthy cells unscathed, according to a study released on Monday.

My name is David, in Melbourne Australia. In August 05 routine tests discovered a PSA of 9, which rose to 19 after 2 months. Ultrasound & DRE were negative, biopsy found cancer. Gleason 3/4 or 4/3.
Another 90 days gone by	12 Apr 2006 19:20 GMT	3
To all: Went in last week for my 90 day Lupron shot. I combine it with a 50MG Casodex daily. The PSA 90 days ago was 0.10. The results now came back at 'less than" 0.10. This is as low as the non-sensitive test will go. We
Casodex only & testosterone up	12 Apr 2006 17:33 GMT	4
Is this a spike? Started Casodex 50 mg once a day exactly a week ago. His T has been in the 500s. Had a T today and it was 943. Not quite doubled. He starts Trelstar on Thursday. P.S. his PSA was "< .04" (confirmed not my typo). Does Casodex alone
salvage RT for pos lymph nodes--any studies?	12 Apr 2006 14:18 GMT	22
Hi, all. We met our local uro today. He is so cool. He was very open and information-gathering. He said he thought it was appropriate we were going at it very aggressively ("full court press") and that it looked like our onc knew what she was doing. He is fine with treating
Hi Ho I'm in for HIFU!	11 Apr 2006 15:28 GMT	3
I'm going into UCLH hospital this Sunday (day after tomorrow) for some pre-ops handling and being Hifu'd Monday. Terrific! No more waiting. Being an idle sort of fellow (idle poor, not idle rich!) I was available at very short notice to fill in a cancellation. Ah! the

Cryotherapy - Seven+ months post-op	09 Apr 2006 21:37 GMT	1
I just had my second check of PSA on April 6th and am happy to report a PSA < 0.1. To recap, I was 73 at the time of my cryo on August 30, 2005, had a PSA of 4.53, and a Gleason of 6. First check of PSA was in December of 2005 and it
Crowing! 1st PSA after RP	09 Apr 2006 20:08 GMT	17
We got the bloodwork back that was done on 4/3, 4 weeks after surgery. PSA was .01, PAP was .7. Guess we'll never know how low it would have gone, since the Casodex was started 4/4 and the rest of the ADT will start next Thursday. Still, it is good news. Shouldn't take any time

I want to run a marathon - or at least start training for one. I also want to complete a triathlon. I have a question to the group. How many runners do we have here?
