Profile

Have you been diagnosed with prostate cancer?
no
What brings you to the New Prostate Cancer InfoLink social network?
We're big "Dr. Krongrad" fans. Anything to help.
Would you help us grow the network? Would you tell others about it?
Certainly!
About Me:
My husband had surgery for prostate cancer in 9/06. After MUCH research, we feel we found the best surgeon possible, Dr. Krongrad. (The fact that his practice is in Miami was an added bonus!)

Dave was only 52 when he had his surgery. Now, almost 20 months since his surgery, we're still dealing with ED issues. His PSA had been 0, but 3 months ago it went up some. They told us it may have been a fluke, who knows... and to not worry. They will retest in May and we'll go from there.

I was becoming consumed with Prostate Cancer, learning as much as I could and passing the information along to my husband. Finally it started to take its toll on me, and I needed a diversion. My sons had shown an interest in starting a business so I helped them and we got it going. We're not rich, but we're having fun!

Hi, Angela. We're doing great! Our 3rd child graduated from HS a couple weeks ago, and our 4th (youngest) got his drivers license today.

We do as many festivals as we can during the summer/fall... and tomorrow starts our first one for the season. A Fish Fry... and none of us like fish. LOL! Hopefully we'll sell lots of stickers!

Hi Shirley,
I hope you'll keep us posted on Dave's PSA results.
Also, I'm intending to keep soliciting information and adding to a discussion I started; you or he might be interested in following it or even adding comments/questions. I'm hoping the larger forum will eventually include such topics as injections and implants.
