New from South Carolina

Postby rrl228 » Wed Aug 06, 2014 10:24 pm

74 w male from Charleston area SC. Have scheduled surgery for Aug 25. Have enjoyed reading postings on this site and other who have shared there personal life with others. I posted on Craig's list and gone one good answer. Found from him to search of penile implant and found this site. I had prostrate cancer and took 38 radiations treatments and can not get up at all. I wait over a year to do this make sure radiation worked my PSA's now run .5 so feel comfortable mwe got the cancer early. Any one close please give me your thoughts.
I am Ron

Welcome rrl,
I also had radiation for Prostate Cancer (PCa). Has anyone told you that your PSA will probably fluctuate a bit, probably going higher before
it settles down and then hopefully stays down. Will take about a year or so. So if at your next PSA check the number goes up a bit, don't panic.
That's pretty normal.
Hope you get a good implant and things get on the up and up again!
Prostate cancer age 65 with PSA 5.8. Biopsy Oct 2010. Gleason score of 7, 3+4 with perineural invasion. Stage II, T2cNXMX.
Jan-Feb 2011 radiation. Palladium-103 seed implant March 2011 (55 implants). Lupron treatment from Dec 2010 to Aug 2011 (8 months).
