    My dad had prostate cancer a couple years ago. He was able to treat it with radiation for a few months. It's gone now, and he's fine. It's a scary thing to go through, and triring depending on the treatment method, but there's a way out, and there's light on the other side. I'm glad Al is doing well.

    I had robotic prostate surgery, 23 July this year, YES early detection is the key, get regular PSA tests, mine was 3.5 flatline for over 10 years, then took off last year. My recovery has been fantastic, back @ work within a week & haven’t looked back.
    Surgery was carried out here in Australia @ the Peter Mac Cancer Centre, this place is world class.
    My PSA is now undetectable.

      Why would a PSA count go down or fluctuate when with no real treatment except "watchful waiting"? I was diagnosed with prostate cancer with a biopsy and MRI at a PSA count of 3.7 maximum (now 2.7 but fluctuating). *How Prostate Cured Total* 👉 *For more information My Profile In About* Or Bio

      Hi Edwardo, I should have added a bit more detail, my PSA was consistent @ 3.5 for about 10 years, then a blood test yielded a 11.8 PSA, my GP recommended seeing a Urologist, a MRI followed, then a biopsy, the biopsy presented 4 x 4mm cancers on my prostate...surgery followed. My PSA a week before surgery was 14. My 6 month check up a few weeks ago, PSA now 0.01, which has been described as undetectable.

    Thank you for this video. I have a prostate biopsy on Wednesday. If mine turns out to be like Al's, I have already made up my mind to have the prostate removed, too. I am 63 yo. I have a heavy cancer history in my family. I had a PSA test, and I scored a 5.1 with a rise from 3.0 to 5.1 in just 2 years. Thank you.

    • @dgre334
      @dgre334 2 года назад +2

      The cancer may have already spread to other parts of the body prior to removal. Those cancer cells will continue to make psa therefore continuing to test the level of psa will be a telltale of cancer. This would likely trigger radiation therapy and/or hormone treatment. Negligble levels of psa suggest the cancer is gone.
