Personal Benchmark: 3 years prostate cancer free
Self | July 16, 2022 | fwdude

Posted on 07/16/2022 8:23:56 AM PDT by fwdude

Just an update on earlier posts on my prostate cancer journey. Yesterday, July 15, was my 3-year anniversary of my radical prostatectomy surgery. So far, no recurrence is evident and my PSA still reads undetectable. Praise God!

I realize that others have seen different outcomes, and everyone’s journey is different, but this was a major milestone for me.

Well, if you value reproducing and the fun that comes with it, you need a prostate. It’s what produces the “juice.”

Wow congrats. That must feel like winning the lottery. I had myself checked out a few months ago and everything seems fine, although all they did was a blood test and anal probe. Also got a colonoscopy for the first time which was crazy waiting so long to do it because I’m now 60 and colon cancer runs in my family but thank God I am all clear.

If you don’t mind me asking, before you were diagnosed did you have any symptoms such as difficulty urinating? I heard most guys do not have any symptoms which is a scary thought

Congratulations. I just passed the three year milestone from diagnosis for Stage 3 Stomach Cancer myself.

How does one discover stage 3 or 4 with regular checkups?

“Cheaper to cut it off? “

The prostate is internal!

“How does one discover stage 3 or 4 with regular checkups?”

When regular checkups are forbidden by the government for two years.
