You need to get your butt down to www.mdanderson.org
You can do a self-referral at the site, and you want to see Dr. John W. Davis in the genitourinary clinic.
I have sent six men to see him for their surgeries. All have been thrilled with the results. In short, HE IS THE MAN.
If you are a candidate for surgery, having your prostate removed is the only way to go.
I was diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer over four years ago, so I was not a candidate for surgery.
If you have surgery and the doctor gets it all, it will never be a problem in the future. If some localized lymph nodes are involved, they can be removed. Sometimes follow up radiation is needed if the PSA starts to go up again.
My brother-in-law was diagnosed with PC six months after I was. Fortunately, he was a candidate for surgery. It’s been 3.5 years for him and his PSA is undetectable. He’s doing great.
BTW, his urinary control is excellent and he has no ED issues. Those are two of the reasons you want the very best surgeon.
If you want, I’d be more than wiling o meet you when you come down for your first appointment.
MD Anderson is the #1 Cancer Center in the World.

Are you referring to the MD Anderson in Dallas?
