[FED 387]

x tech man thanks for your thought!!!! It's rather ironic I went in for my every other year physical to renew my NHRA license in 2006 and I always get a "complete" physical above and beyond what NHRA requires on the license app ---my PSA was 5 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it normally is 3.4-3.6 has been for 20 years--Dr suggested I go see a Urologist so I go down and he does the digital exam nothing makes the appt for a week to do the biopsy and everything is OK--I go in every 90 days for the PSA blood sample and the digital exam , everything is ok I went back in in Dec 2008 for my racing physical and got my PSA tested it is still OK--3.4-3.6---go back in for my 90 day check up at the Urologist in late Feb 09 my PSA is now 9.5-- a week and a 1/2 later-did another biopsy comes back POSITIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MALIGNANT CANCAR CELLS ---does another blood draw same day as the biopsy my PSA had dropped to 5.4---so we talked it over and decided on a course of treatment---LUCKILY/FORTUNATELY whatever I caught it VERY VERY early ---Dr. feels that I am 97-99% cancer free at this time however I will get another PSA blood test in Sept it should come back 0 or very close to 0 otherwise I "might" need a dose or 2 of radiation to eradicate any remaining problem cancer cells---GUYS GO GET CHECKED OUT NOW!!!!!!!!!! DO NOT PUT IT OFF IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU--IT HAPPENED TO ME AND I AM THE FIRST TO SAY THAT I WAS THE LAST PERSON TO EVER THINK OTHERWISE---Dick Ullrich Comp 387
