Look at it in the positive side, early detection and elimination is the road to win the battle. Ignoring the problem is not an option. Good luck with your journey. I am confident that you would conquer it.RPBrown wrote:UPDATE--I got the results from the biopsy back this morning and they are not good. Seems like I have Stage 2 prostate cancer. I am going to start radiation treatment on Monday. 5 days a week for 8 weeks. I won't need a night scope as I will be glowing. Makes for a good target though.
If the beam radiation doesn't work, they will implant radiation seeds. Woohoo, I become a radiation farmer.
Anyway, if that doesn't take care of it, they will remove the prostate. I guess thats how they harvest what grows from the seeds.
I have to joke about it or my wife will just bust out crying again. The doctor says that at this stage, there is a 90% survival rate. This is encouraging. I hope he is talking about me and not those blasted seeds.
All kidding aside, please send continued prayers but more so for my wife. She is having a very hard time dealing with this.
