Hi Arna

This is a terrible desease my father was diognosed with this 15years ago and I don't want to put a damper on all the male minti's but if you have a suspision that something is wrong please have a bone scan as well as we were told that the prostate can leak the virus into the bones without you knowing. My father was having blood tests every month and all looked good his blood count was really good then last year his blood went up to 100 then 200 still the prostate was fine until the bone scan ( he was riddled in the bones) even blod transfusions didn't help as he became very lethargic and breathless. 

Please always get a second opinion as you will see in my details I lost my father in Oct. because they found it too late We were told in August that year, It still hurts that they didn't find it in the bones even with the blood test every month. 

I don't want to scare any male but please I repeat always get a second opinion.

Hope dr Harry is o.k. and posative thoughts are all out there      

Yeah i heard it on the radio yesterday. I had no idea. Lets hope he can get through this hey

Good ol' Dr Harry, it is very sad that he has been suffering and battling prostate cancer.  It is so important for men to be tested and aware of the symptoms.  Thanks for the heads up and of course we wish the lovely Dr Harry all the very best.

 Gee I hope he can overcome it. I'm a fan too.  Good to see him still doing his show.

That's a shame, hadn't heard that but glad the prognosis is good. I am a fan. Didn't know that you had a blood test for that, thought it would be just a feel like breast examination. No excuses for us now, they get all the fun! LOL Thanks Arna, Lynette xx

WOW!!!!

so glad the outcome looks good. Is funny cause when I watched BHG a few weeks ago I said to hubby he looked a little thin and ill. mmmmm

So glad he isnt letting it interfer with his life.
