Hi there,

I thought that I would bring this paper to everybody's attention.
It seems to show that there is a distinct link between taking metformin and a statin and the progress of PCa.
If you have metastatic prostate cancer or you think that you might then if you can persuade your doctor to give you some metformin and a statin like avorstatin it may prolong your life.
