Nurses

We have had a number of nurses come to the house. My husband is very ill with prostate cancer. If any of you men are reading this, please get your PSA test by the time you are 50. My husband is 83 and he has a very rare form that is untreatable. It has gone into the muscles and is very quick to kill you.

Prostate Cancer and PSA Tests

Every man over 50 should have a PSA test. They are finding younger and younger men with prostate cancer. If you are under 70, they recommend surgery. If you are over 70, they recommend hormone shots or radiation or you can decide to just let it go and you will probably die of something totally different. My husband took 42 radiation treatments in 2000 and now his PSA is up higher than it was then and they are talking another blood test in 3 months and if it is still high, hormone shots. Don't take a chance with your life. See a urologist men.

Prostate Cancer Diagnosed- Israel's Prime Minister

Israel's Prime Minister has prostate cancer. Ehud Olmert said he will have surgery for prostate cancer but he added it had been caught early and he would remain in office. He is 62 years of age, and has led Israel since 2006 when Ariel Sharon had a massive stroke that left him in a coma.
