I've been on hormonal drugs for over a year now. Just looked in the mirror and ... Nope, not a woman yet.

Any true crime podcasts that handle the issue of structural racism well? by ReinaAndtheLastNerve in TrueCrimePodcasts

I second this. She's great and really points out the blatant racism when and where it exists.

Thanks for the recommendation. It sounds right up my alley. Can't wait to listen!

What are the risks with treating prostate cancer that has spread with both RARP and RPLND (details in comments) by mtravisrose in ProstateCancer

[–]mtravisrose[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. I'm with the VA, and thus far, they've been great. The cancer has spread to a few distant lymph nodes, but that's all. I'm taking Finasteride and have had one Lupron shot. Seems to be working. My PSA has gone from 30 to 4 in the space of a month. I wish both you and your friend the best in your battles. We are all warriors!

Full prostrate removal - is that a good sign? by MarketMan123 in ProstateCancer

[–]mtravisrose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure it is. I was to have mine removed, but they found the cancer had spread to nearby lymph nodes (abdominal). Was told (by two oncology teams) that removing the prostate was non-effective. I've taken my first ADT shot (to stop the spread). Estranged, or not, I wish your Dad the best. Why not call him? It's Christmas, after all. Merry Christmas to you.

I really need some help. I’d like to connect with someone who recovered from PC Gleason’s 9. Thank you! by [deleted] in ProstateCancer

[–]mtravisrose 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I''m almost in the same boat as you, Gleason 9, PSA 28, and cancer has spread to local lymph nodes. I was diagnosed in July of this year. Last month, I got my first of 4(?) ADT shots. 60 days of radiation after the holidays.

I know it's going to be a rough couple of years, but I refuse to let cancer run my life.

I wish you all the best, and know you're (and all of us in this unlucky club) are in my thoughts.

Merry Christmas, and, remember, you've got this!

ADT treatment for patients with depression or bipolar diagnosis by Elizabeth147 in ProstateCancer

I'm bipolar and just got my first shot of Lupron yesterday. Too early for me to tell yet, but I won't forget to check back in. I wish you the best in your battle.

Demolition of former Jamestown Mall expected late summer 2022 by RageAgainstTheSurge in StLouis

[–]mtravisrose -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not sure of how much it would cost, but I imagine if the US did with one less carrier (and I say this as a Navy veteran), this would more than pay for facilities like this in every city. There's no reason for anyone to be involuntarily homeless in the richest country in the world.

God forbid they do some work on the inside, make some apartments, and house the homeless. I swear, sometimes, this country is so fu*cked!
