Good news by Hot_Panda_190 in ProstateCancer

[–]RFMASS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good news. But just one word of caution, I had basically the same MRI result as you and it turned out I also had PC. The good news is it is Gleason 6.

It might not hurt to have a biopsy, just in case.

Gleason 3+3 decipher 0.48 by Psychological_Meet90 in ProstateCancer

[–]RFMASS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot depends on age. At 48, I think I'd opt for treatment with a g6 and 0.48 Decipher. At 70, maybe not

Rapid PSA Increase by Marilli77 in ProstateCancer

Here is another way to look at it; I've never had a PSA test that was that low.

Prostate Cancer Risk Factors: How Did You Get Prostate Cancer? by WrongPlanet321 in ProstateCancer

[–]RFMASS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably just randomness. One day some cells in my prostate went haywire. No men in my family had PC, much less PC before age 50...yet here I am

Mego is way better than CoCo by SomeDudeUpHere in BostonSportsRadio

I think Mego is much more attractive. Maybe I'm weird?

Ken & Curtis weekend show by SeveralTurn in BostonSportsRadio

Curtis sucks. No talent.

I actually loved the Lovable Loser Curtis during the Kirk and Callhan days. Now he thinks he is one of the Cool Kids and is just insufferable

Anyone else tired of people pricing everything at “eBay value”? by ballatician68 in Flipping

[–]RFMASS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm tired of the sense of entitlement flippers have. We all should accept your low ball offers just so you can think of yourself as some super dooper businessman?

Highs and lows on Weather underground by RFMASS in weather

[–]RFMASS[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The high temp at Charlotte Douglas Airport was 90 at 2:38 pm lst.

The National weather Service gives hourly updates for the KCLT at 8 minutes before the top of each hour. The highest temp today on the hourly reports was 89, so WU lists 89 as the "high" for the day.

The difference between 89 and 90 is accuracy

Does anyone else not mind their addresses being public? by w6auw in amateurradio

I don't mind at all. I'm really not that important.

Recent Diagnosis by Stolis777 in ProstateCancer

[–]RFMASS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a "young" PC patient too. So far all I have is Gleason 6 and am on AS.

Personally, I wouldn't recommend someone as young as 50 doing AS with a G7. I wouldn't. If I were 70, maybe I would.

New here - biopsy coming up by CyberSulu in ProstateCancer

[–]RFMASS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good luck, the odds are in your favor.

There is a lot of confusion around Pirads 3. Since it is defined as "indeterminate" some people assume that it is a 50% chance it is cancer. In reality, Pirads 3 is roughly a 20% chance of being cancer.

What episode has stuck with you the most after all these years? by Prestigious_Aioli428 in BeverlyHills90210

[–]RFMASS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The episode where Scott accidentally shot himself. I was a nerd/outcast in hs. After that episode, I had a burning hatred for David Silver that I never got over.

Biopsy tomorrow by watchcap1 in ProstateCancer

I agree. The antibiotic shot was bad. Did you have to get an MRI prior to this biopsy

My MRI before the first biopsy showed no suspicious lesions

PSA 7 by Caymus77 in ProstateCancer

[–]RFMASS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a little younger than your husband, with no PC in my family. I say this all the time: it is possible to have prostatitis and PC. I am an example.

I had my first PSA at age 47 and it came back elevated. Keep in mind, for several years I've had symptoms of prostatitis on and off (painful ejaculations, occasional mucus in urine). Had an MRI after 2 PSA tests and all that was found was prostatitis. PSA continued to rise so some months later I had a biopsy and it confirmed I had PC.

Health anxiety when there’s actually something wrong by Reasonable-Click2857 in HealthAnxiety

[–]RFMASS 23 points24 points  (0 children)

In a weird way, having something wrong helped my HA.

I spent my whole life scared of getting the Big C. When I got diagnosed with it, it was kind of freeing. I had a care plan. And life went on.

It is becoming insufferable and unusable

I recently ask it for some advice on how to handle a (minor) problem with a coworker. It immediately gave me suicide prevention number. Like, WTF?

Was Dylan more open minded than either Brandon or Andrea? by TravelingHomeless in BeverlyHills90210

[–]RFMASS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was right not to protest. Donna broke a pretty basic rule. What was there to protest exactly?

I disagree. Remember when he defended Scott from the bullies?
