Tomorrow's the day
Question:
Sandy: Guess today is the big day for you. Hope all goes well both with the operation and the post-op side effects. Thank you. David S. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -Well, the time has finally come. All the tests and preparations are now over. I am to arrive at Memorial Sloane Kettering Cancer Center at 8:30am and my RRP is scheduled for noon. Can’t say I’m glad to be going, I guess I can say that I’m glad the waiting and accompaning anxiety is nearing an end. I’ve been doing all I can to keep my mind off of the procedure. I spent a glorious afternoon on my boat, fishing in the Atlantic with my wife and daughter. Didn’t catch a thing, but that doesn’t matter. Hopefully, if all goes well, I’ll be back home by Father’s Day. I’ll post my results then. Thanks to all of you in this great group for all your support. Sandy K. Age 47 – 2/04 PSA 4.9 Biopsy 3/5/04 – 10 cores, 9 malignant. Gleason 3+3, T2b RRP – 6/17/04

Here’s wishing you a complete cure and no side effects, just like I got. And your numbers are better than mine. jimhoney standard RRP age 52, cured, no aftereffects
