Oh to have a malady that the medicos take seriously, and will actually treat that malady. I have one I have endured now for ten months, and I have had no help at all from two doctors. This problem is not with the prostate, but it is endemic to males (‘nuff said). This malady won’t kill me, and the doctors hope it will solve itself. Because I am an octogenarian, I suspect they think I’ll die from something else, and that will solve a problem for them!

 

Good news @JimInOz
I had another skin cancer check up and a few biopsies taken only yesterday.
Looks like I have been in a fight with a few scares and a swollen right eye.

 

Ahhhhhhh......Friday
A local brewery "Imperial Stout" (11% ABV) for me (first alcoholic drink for a month) and a Blue Tongue G&T for my Darlin'.

I'll sleep well tonight.

 

No fancy FODMAP dinner tonight.

Just pizza loaded with cheese, and meat, and other good tasting stuff.

 

Keep eatin' like that and I'll have to loan you my Uncle Buck avatar!

Good news and good feelings from the finest friend and the most exceptional couple!
Jim(Dandy) and (Bonnie)Annie are unsurpassed when it comes to decency, helpfulness and quality, unselfish interactions with all of us here.

And he looks good in his skivvies!

 

Congratulations and enjoy the well deserved rewards

 

I just noticed a post by @Canuck, I thought he was referring to me for a moment, but then I remembered that I don't have a Rolex Oyster Date.

It was a timely reminder though, so I thought I'd update this thread.
After my radiation treatment ended I had to wait for about six weeks for the results of the treatment to be validated (or not).
Got a call from my oncologist late last week and he was very happy with the outcome of the treatment, needless to say, so was I.

The results below speak for themselves and the levels of PSA in my system are expected to decline over time. Next test in January 2024, so fingers crossed.

(Note: I used an older pathology report, latest one isn't on my health record yet).

 

Good news indeed!!!
