Cancer Free: I Beat Prostate Cancer; Mish the Guinea Pig

- Mish - Global Economic Analysis

Thank you for such an open and specific review on such an important men's health issue. I too have had a high psa test and was encouraged by my urologist to have a biopsy in short order. The Dr described the procedure as inserting a needle through the rectum and drawing a dozen samples from a walnut sized gland motivating me to do some research which provided that one prime reason for an elevated psa was an infection. As it turned out, I had an ongoing problem from a kidney stone and took some 4 or 5 anti-biotics of successive increasing strength to overcome resulting in a normal PSA test and NO biopsy. I was very glad that I chose the wait-and=see approach. I did wind up having the kidney stone removed and thankfully have not had other issues. Bottom line is, as you point out, the hazards of prostrate surgery are not considered adequately by a doctor where your sex life and incontinence are at stake and the wait-and-see approach is just as statistically viable. Beware of overly aggressive, unnecessary, and invasive surgical procedures!
