Visit to the Urologist

I had an early morning visit to my Urologist's office for blood work, specifically to double check my PSA levels to confirm the PSA results that were discovered by my family physician.  I had a web conference with my Urologist earlier this month where he did not seem too concerned with my high PSA levels, especially because Prostate Cancer was very slow growing which pretty much gives him a 90 day window or so before any action needs to be taken...  These result will confirm high levels or not and then a follow-up visit with him later this month (another web conference) will determine what, if anything that he will do about it. 

PROTON THERAPY
When it comes to treating prostate cancer, it's important to know all of your treatment options. Proton therapy is a non-surgical outpatient procedure that has become a trusted method for treating prostate cancer with a lower risk of side effects and improved quality of life. Unlike other treatments like prostatectomy and brachytherapy, proton therapy is non-invasive.

Studies have shown that proton therapy is an ideal treatment for all stages of prostate cancer and reduces the risk of serious bowel or bladder complications (compared to traditional radiation), allowing men to maintain their normal daily activities both during and after treatment.
