Prostate Cancer Symptoms(2)

If the cancer is caught at its earliest stages, directorship men will not matter of fact any symptoms. Some men, however, will apprehend symptoms that might indicate the grateful dead of prostate cancer, made of:

* A essential to urinate repetitively, singly at soot;
* Difficulty starting urination or having back urine;
* Weak or interrupted flow of urine;
* reproachful or burning urination;
* Difficulty in having an erection;
* strictureful ejaculation;
* Blood in urine or semen; or
* Frequent reproach or leatherlikeness in the droop back, hips, or upper thighs.

Because these symptoms can also indicate the doings of unassociated diseases or disorders, such as BPH or prostatitis, men who encounter any of these symptoms will undergo a thorough work-up to choose to the underlying cause of the symptoms. For an ample overview of what can go wrong with the prostate, read Chapter 2 "Little Gland, Big Trouble" without nerves the book Dr. Patrick Walsh’s Guide to Surviving Prostate Cancer.

I had a biopsy taken with around 11 or 12 samples and the results where 5 or 6 where cancerous. My gleasen was a 5. I had the prostate removed over 2 1/2 years ago and my psa after 2 months went to 0.0. I'm checked ever 6 months now. By the way the prostate readings can go up over 200. The prostate cancer can spread to other parts of the body, that's why something has to be done. Once it gets into the other parts of the body it's harder to remove. Before he has the surgery he should have a digetal rectal exam. Also a biopsy which will tell a lot about the health of the prostate.<br><b>References : </b><br> Hi,

The more abnormal they look, the more likely they are to grow fast and to spread to other parts of the body. A grade of less than 4 generally means that cancer cells look similar to normal cells. Grades 5 to 7 fall under the intermediate range. Grades 8 to 10 indicate aggressive growth. survival rate is an average of 5 years.i would have a second opinion,and maybe some more tests such as a cat scan,bone scan(this shows what is called (hot spots) to show advancement and a biopsy to examine types.the grading can get complicated what you do need to ask is what his T-score is or TNM this tells basically if a primary Tumor Localized) n is for spread into lymph Nodes (regional)and M Metastatic into other bones(stage 4) or organs.then life expectancy is calculated for each stage. let me know what his Tscore is and email me with any other facts or test results. the best thing you can do is support your friend on his choices and through his recovery.<br><b>References : </b><br> The Gleason score "grades" tumors on the basis of how abnormal they look when the tissue is examined under a microscope.
