Prostate cancer and a little knowledge is a dangerous thing…
Continued from the place on my face removed, retrieved from the trash, found put in formalin and then in my pocket and then to the 1994 car with old as hell tires to find that one is flat. It is a humid but not overly hot early September day in North Georgia. Without missing a …

waiting on the biopsy report about melanoma….prostate cancer deja vu all over again
Okay...you get over the age of 50 and all of a sudden all of these weird skin spots start coming up all over your body and particularly your face. The sun exposed places, the disease of farmers. Looming in the background is the "M" word...melanoma. My wife posed an interesting question a few weeks ago, …
Prostate cancer treatments: Robotic vs. open prostatectomy? A new car vs. one that is old (and paid for) but works and gets you from point A to point B. A foreboding of healthcare to come?
What band and what album...Rolling Stone Magazine....the number one album of all time. This van thing and the "get a new car dad" thing is getting to be a bit much. A new Ford F150 is about 32,000 and a used car comes with as they say, "someone else's problems." I can get the POS …
Prostate cancer the Rodney Dangerfield of Cancers and Louis Prima’s Gigolos- Don’t nobody care for me
The decision of the USPTF (or whatever the hell the letters of this little government group of nonclinical doctors who will decide who will get treatment for prostate cancer-it is not going to be good my friend) in saying that the government will not pay for a prostate cancer screening and PSA's is a slap …
How the urologist is like a car salesman when it comes to prostate cancer decision making. There’s an art to both professions.
What a week. Monday morning and off to work in my wife’s old 96 Chrysler van that I have been driving for about 10 years or so because she didn’t want it any more. It made a loud sound when you turned the steering wheel, which I admit was a bit obnoxious, and she …
Prostate cancer diagnosed too late to cure…how can this be?
So look at the two things below- a comment and an article. The diagnosis of prostate when it is too late to cure occurs in 1 in 25 men. So if 250,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer a year in the U.S. then the number who have metastatic disease at diagnosis is 10,000. Do …

Happy Birthday Jennie Cooper! The photo of The Beatles crossing Abbey Road taken on August 8th 1969. No Beatle has prostate cancer…yet.
Abbey Road Live Cam-I am mesmerized by this. My wife and our three children were visiting my mother and grandmother one holiday at my childhood home at 103 N. Lewis St. in LaGrange, Georgia when the children were young. The house is one block off the square in LaGrange, across the street from the …
My protective love of tomatoes must have been overcome by my love of southern sweet tea: result prostate cancer.
So I am camping with my son's scout group and a father I was assigned to be in the same tent tells me that he loves sweet tea. "Is that so?" I ask. "Yes, love it. I have it everyday for lunch no matter where I am," he says. He tells me he was a …
Prostate cancer decision making based on a biopsy…a potential pitfall for surveillance therapy.
Summer is a good time to be a urologist in Georgia. Here's how it goes. An older patient comes in and has a tan. I ask, " How is your garden this year?" The response, " The tomatoes are just coming in." I say," I'll do half the work. You grow them and I'll help …
