Restriction in urine flow is what put me on to it, from what I understand is if you get on to it early enough then the chances of a cure are very good. I'll have the test and then start worrying if I have need to, from what I have been told is that 95% of prostate trouble is non-cancerous so that's encouraging. I want it fixed because I want to maximize my time on the planet, mainly because I want to spend with my daughter (I'm moving down to be near her) and i'd like to the Superwhite return to the prem. I've quit my job and want to move tomorrow but i'll see the doctor here in Ballarat today and follow it up when I move. I got through the first sixty years of life so i'm ready for the next sixty.
Oh yeah, NB is right, forget the macho thing and get tested, Frank Zappa is probably the most famous victim of this insidious disease.
Thanks for the good wishes, I've got family support and amazingly some friends I didn't know I have.
No point in being negative about it, get it fixed and then get on with life.
One bad thing i've done is take up smoking again mainly through the worry I guess but it's better than getting on the bottle and dropping my bundle. I'm getting off them as soon as I can.
I have lots to live for and I want to see the super-whites return to the top flight.
I may be off line for a while (no internet where i'm going to live) but I will be back, my daughter won't let me get down in the dumps or she'll kick my arse.
