Brothers, I continue to be a member of the ZERO CLUB. IT was my 1 year and about a month test and came back Non-Detectable...YES! So glad I made the decision I did on my surgery. All is well and now after a cortizone injection into my arthritic hip I find great relief and the ability to walk nearly normal again.

It's been a while since I last posted. I hope all my brothers are doing well and beating the beast well into the ground where it belongs, never to rise again. My freind Jesse also returned a Zero on his test last week!

    Holding Steady is Great!
    Ira, I was very concerned about your choice but you are living proof as is many others there is always more ways than just one to "Skin the Beast" and win!!!

    Great news Ira!

    Randy

    My mistake
    I meant to say that I had a PSA.........not a biopsy...............however, I am pretty happy and going on with my life, enjoying it as much as I can....

    I'm glad that every thing was very successful for you and you are able to go on with your life......it's very nice to hear t his.....you made the right decision.

    Hey Randy...Great to hear
    Hey Randy...Great to hear you are still getting ZEROS! My year anniversary is coming up March 3 and so I will be taking a PSA test the 18th or so in March…So as always I hope it I will get another zero….No I was just complaining about a CT scan I had this week along with a scope (you are sticking that thing up me sort of scope)…

    I passed a little blood about a month ago after I got to the next step in my yoga and was doing some serious stretching anyway my oncologist (bless him) was concerned that I had cancer somewhere else but nothing was found and every organ was looked at and I still believe it was a structure (passed one this past July down at the beach) or a kidney store (which I have no history of and I doubt) …I just do not like radiation in general…

    I need to be more like you the “original poster child” and reduce my comments and time here in general…In the mean time I will rejoice with my continued blessing at keeping this beast “at bay”…

    Best to all in your journey

    I too, am ready for the ZERO Club!
    My 2 year anniversary is May 1. I have a blood draw later this month. Need to find a new urologist as mine left his practice for the FDA! Hope to continue the ZERO'S and get out of the ED club!!!

    Glad to hear
    Randy, So glad to hear about your zero. That's fantastic. Hope you continue to maintain your membership in the ZERO CLUB!!!!! This is one test you want a zero.

    I had my last PSA in September and still in the zero club. I have my 2 year followup uro visit this March.
