Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 The following new members have joined: sue679815 suesaxey@... (who has already posted on the List) and who says: My father has prostate cancer with bony metastases tishindian tishindian@... who says: 49 years old just dx'ed 4 days ago. Going this week to discuss treatment and options. Needing to hear how others decided on treatments. Need help to cope. Welcome to the club you never wanted to join and welcome to the Prostate Cancer Support Forum. You might find it useful to visit YANA - You Are Not Alone Now www.yananow.net a site set up for newly diagnosed people. The first section gives some basic information in plain language with links to more complex and technical sites. There is a section dealing with the management of the disease, including some dietary hints at http://www.yananow.net/MyersManagement.htm there is also a section suggesting the questions that you should seek answers to before making any treatment decision at http://www.yananow.net/questions.htm The second section of the site is where men are invited to tell their prostate cancer stories and how they arrived at their decisions regarding treatment. Many people have mailed to say how useful they have found this, especially because most of the men are happy to respond to specific questions. The section of the site can be found by clicking the link labelled Experiences or going to http://www.yananow.net/Experiences.html But in any event, please post some details of your diagnosis – Age, PSAs leading up to the diagnosis, Gleason Score and Staging (these terms are all explained on the YANA site) and any questions you might have. Just remember – there are no dumb questions. We all started off where you are now, but we’ve collectively learned a lot over the years. All the best Terry Herbert I have no medical qualifications but I was diagnosed in ‘96: and have learned a bit since then. My sites are at www.yananow.net and www.prostatecancerwatchfulwaiting.co.za Dr “Snuffy” Myers : " As a physician, I am painfully aware that most of the decisions we make with regard to prostate cancer are made with inadequate data " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
