yay BC - wenching and excessive consumption of beer has rendered you invincible :)

You spelled 'incomprehensible' wrong.

I'm not sure that falling asleep and spilling it all over himself counts as consumption.

So, OK, I'm back.  Hi.  Did I miss anything?

Never heard of you. New to the boards?

Clearly I don't owe you any money.

prostate cancer is normally  veeeeeeeery sloooooooow.....

Yeah, in fact a lot of doctors tell their patients not to worry about it because they will die of something else WAAAY before they ever have any problems and the course of treatment would cause a lot of complications.  I mean when their patients are like 78.  So did they have to take the whole prostate or were they able to just take the tumor?

Dey took da whole ting!

And they also do biopsies on selected tissues while you are still under the knife so in case they have to remove other stuff, they can do so (relatively) easily.  But all that stuff was negative.  They are about 99%+ that it had not spread beyond the prostate.

And true... if I was like 80-85, I would have just said 'screw it'.

Wait...

*cough*

Anyway, since I am still so young *cough-cough*, it seemed a reasonable decision, and in hind-sight, it seems even more than reasonable now.

Except for that fricking catheter...  sheesh...

Robots... is there anything they can't do?
According to lonely Japanese devi...inventors... no.

No, no.  I'm pretty sure you were right the first time.   :stunned:

It's like they mixed in Japanese Nerd Perversion and The Reanimator together at last.

wow - awesome that you are ok and all that.

Yea, we had a family friend who had the same thing - and since I'm 40-something, I made sure I get the PSA test when i get my checkup (which I do yearly now.) Better to know early.

Now, to buy stock in the company that makes these robots...

I seriously had the same thought.

looks like the time to do that was 2004...

ISRG - down to 114 a share at last close... 52-week high - 355.98. Ouch.

ahh, but they are part of the NASDAQ... QQQ is much more affordable. :)

Well...

I was on my way to the doc with my urine specimen when I decided to have one quick beer, and then got a bit confused when I left (*cough*).

Imagine the nurse's suprise when she found my sample was Black Rock Ale!  Funny, eh?
