pianoman, thanks for the sensible outline. just diagnosed 65 yo, gleason 9. bone scan and pelvic scan in 2 days. everyone seems to have a sense of urgency. i wish marketing was stripped from research results on google. its hard to tell real from not so real.

I'm 73 was diagnosed 1 year ago GS 8, regional metastatic PC. Went on ADT, zytiga and eligard, In one month, PSA went down from 60 to 0.08, next month < 0.04 which is considered undetectable. Still is undetectable as of 2 weeks ago. The ADT gave me a year to do tons of research and with this support group, I just made the call to get RALP. done in 2 weeks. I felt it was best for me. Stay tuned.
