No cancer, that's the verdict from the last biopsy described in my last post. Well, it is a relief though I must admit with no symptoms I didn't really think I was afflicted. An elevated PSA scares doctors apparently, a mildly elevated score even more so. At least now I have a baseline from which to judge future test results.
My advice to anyone reading this is to research the subject thoroughly before agreeing to any procedures. The Johns Hopkins website is a good place to start; even though they are selling pamphlets.
So now we my life off hold for a few more months, physically, perhaps the subconscious tension will disappear and sleep will become a regular event.
Getting older is not a pleasure but it is interesting, especially when you consider the alternative. Actually considering the alternative can be very interesting too. What is prolonged illness ended by death? Why should death be of concern to anyone? What is it?
These and other questions will form the basis of future discussions, and if anyone is reading this, some interesting insights from others can be gained.
