I was having problems peeing all the time. Went to my GP and they drew blood. My PSA count was 44. I was referred to a urologist who after doing a rectal exam said he was sure I had prostate cancer, but wanted to do the biopsies, but I had a history of minor strokes and on blood thinners, so only did 4 biops. The biopsies are uncomfortable, but done rite in the doctors exam room. The doc. got done with them and asked if I was OK. I told him that he didn't even knock my hat off. I wear a ball cap all the time. All 4 biops came back positive, so moved forward to treatment. First course of action was a shot of Lupron to reduce my testosterone level. That only brought my PSA down to 25. Next step was radiation treatments. Ended up having 44 of them at 8:30am each weekday, for 9 weeks. It was only a 16 minute drive to the hospital, and no hassles with checking in. Just go to reception area and they would come for me. Treatments were painless, taking about 15 min. We met and made lots of good people and now friends there. I am 100% cured and my PSA is now .020. Loren PS I had a reaction to the Lupron. In rare cases it can bring on heart attacks. I had 3 attacks after the radiation treatments were completed. I was supposed to be on the Lupron for 3 years. We stopped those treatments. They later put 3 stents into me, and then ended up putting 2 more into me. I am feeling real good now. Loren

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
