Anyone have this new procedure or know someone who has gotten it
recently?

Hi everyone, this is my first post here after lurking the last couple
of weeks.
I have a family history of PC -- my Dad died of it in his 70s.  I've
been having yearly PSAs done for the last 10 years (I just turned 59)

I am 69 years old now and in 1999 I was diagnosed as having prostate cancer.
My psa was in the high teens. A biopsy confirmed the diagnosis, and the

as previously posted: following PSA increase I underwent to a CAT-PET

I am 10 days post robotic radical nerve sparing prostatectomy and would like
some information regarding potency issues.
I notice a 40% erectile responce after mild self stimulation. Is this too
early to experiment and/or expect an erectile responce?

Okay, at the prompting of some here, I added a test for testerone to my PSA
test.  It's 61.
