No idea. Let's just say my attention was focused on what was happening elsewhere.

So you didn't really care?

I assumed you would be like George Costanza when he was getting a massage by that guy.

I guess I have a unique outlook on these things.

My only goal is to outlive my 82 year old mother. After that, I seriously DGAS. I'm not leaving anyone behind.

I had mine out in 2012, but that is not necessarily an absolute cure (most doctors avoid using the term "cure" for any kind of cancer that is in remission).

I still get my PSA checked annually by my regular doc, still undetectable, so I probably am "cured."

There are technical/biological reasons why a PSA test is very accurate at detecting prostate cancer cells in the blood after the prostate has been removed/destroyed, unlike before when it doesn't necessarily mean anything -- as in my case.

Your doc doesn't recommend getting it checked annually? I probably wouldn't bother going to the uro annually, except that the PA I see is a very hot early-50s babe.

Oh and by the way, my PSA (as of last December) was basically undetectable (< .02)

Had my prostate removed almost 25 years ago and still get a yearly PSA test, per Dr orders. Dormant cancers can linger for decades and suddenly re-emerge.

The only way it would be that low (mine goes from .03-.06, undetectable) is if there is no prostate gland.

So it all makes sense now. How are you doing with all that crap you went through?
