These are my links from December 21, 2014. The first has to do with a recent study related to actions when one has low-risk prostate cancer. The others have to do with some interesting sites I found for interesting, informative answers to lots of different types of questions.
- ‘Surveillance’ may be safest for low-risk prostate cancer | Reuters – “Among men whose low-risk prostate cancer was managed with so-called active surveillance for up to 15 years, just 1.5 percent died of the cancer, according to new data from a Canadian study.” I was diagnosed with prostate cancer several years ago and have had many biopsies. At my request, I had a prostate MRI in April 2014. It showed nothing extra ordinary and the last time I had a biopsy no cancer was detected. I was scheduled for a prostatectomy in May 2014 but it was called off only days before because of a second reading of an earlier biopsy. My paternal grandfather and father died from prostate cancer so I feel I should be vigilant. The results of this study indicate mortality rates in the vigilant are about the same as those that took radical action.
