With my Prostate Cancer = all I noticed period
was several nocturnal Trips to the bathroom each
night BUT I just wrote that off to getting old!
The majority of us older gentleman have enlarged
Prostate Glands to some degree.

PSA testing each and every year is the KEY!
If it starts sigificant elevating = Call a Urologist

For me when kidney failure was first detected I felt normal and active. I was at 38% function. Check ups ever 6 months for about 5 years. Then it quickly went to 19%. At that point I started feeling lazy and tired. Once I was down to 11% I felt bad and started dialysis. Took about 3 weeks and felt like a million bucks. I was still tired so next step was sleep apnea test. I stopped breathing 90 times in 1 hour. So I qualified for a sleep apnea machine. 1 night is all it took and a swear I felt like 2 million bucks. Both items made me feel and act like I once was. Now if I could just get me a kidney and knees fixed I would the 6 million dollar man. Anyone O poitive that likes the smell of chloroform and dont mind stitches? Just kidding.
