Guest guest Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Larry I don’t recall ever seeing a paper entitled PSA 101. If you find it, please let us know: if you can’t find it, perhaps it would be useful for your co-worker to access the booklet I wrote A Strange Place at http://www.yananow.org/StrangePlace/index.html If they would like a hard copy I’m happy to mail one free of charge, but it takes about 10 days to the US.

Apparently there was a support group of that name in Kingston NY at one time. The article can be located via Google. I do not believe that it is appropriate for the newly-diagnosed, primarily because it tends to confuse the issue with verbiage regarding " alternative treatments, " which are not science-based. Including " Essiac, " which is a known quack nostrum well-exposed on the Quackwatch website. I can with every confidence recommend the Prostate Cancer Research Institute (PCRI) and its " Newly Diagnosed " section at http://www.prostate-cancer.org/pcricms/node/126 There is much other professionally-written and reliable information available via PCRI and books such as _A Primer on Prostate Cancer_ by PCa specialist B. Strum, MD and PCa warrior Donna Pogliano. Regards, Steve J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Your pamphlet was the first thing that I went to. The only thing is they were scared off by the number of pages. Nothing wrong with the size of your work I think they are just a little over consumed at the moment. I was hoping to find a "lite" version for them to read and digest first and then they will want to read Strange Place. Thank you for your excellent work. It really helped me when I was first diagnosed. Larry I don’t recall ever seeing a paper entitled PSA 101.
