Default How long can you live with Prostate cancer?

About ten years or so ago I went to the doctor and asked about
Prostate cancer screening. He said I was too young. Besides being over
worked under paid and uninsured I have a pain in my scrotum and it
feels like I have an 8 ball in between my crotch.

I have been doing a lot of heavy lifting and I am exhausted.
Everything works fine down there but I am very tired. A friend of mine
had kidney cancer and he died shortly afterwards, he complained of
being tired.

Also my bones hurt. I was thinking that I could have a body infection.
Should I be terminated by lethal injection? Getting sick is a sin in
this country, I should be punished. Of course I could be over
reacting, it has been a terrible week.


Need your opinion ???


Thank you.

Those do not seem to be typical symptoms of prostate cancer (PCa).

If "everything works well" I assume that urination presents no
difficulty. Such problems are often a clue as to either PCa or the far
more prevalent benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH; it "just grows")

(snip)

It is well to be concerned about PCa, but not well to be obsessive.

I recommend

(1) See a urologist about a PCa screening. This would involve

(a) a blood draw for prostate specific antigen (PSA) -- done *before*
other tests.
(b) a digital rectal examination (DRE) to determine whether there are
any lumps or hard areas on the prostate.

Neither of these tests are specific for PCa, but should produce
information that will permit an intelligent decision on how to proceed.

(2) Refer to the "Undiagnosed" section of the Prostate Cancer Research
Institute PCRI) website at
http://prostate-cancer.org/education...ml#undiagnosed where
excellent information can be found.

Good luck.

Regards,

Steve J

Doesn't sound like prostate cancer, but you may want to have a doc look at
you for testicular cancer or a hernia or -- not being a doctor myself --
anything I don't know about.

"Getting sick is a sin"

Too bad..... based on your comments sounds like you are pretty sick.

This is repulsive. If _I_ were in charge of the universe, zack75 would find
his "questions" had assumed a new urgency.
