A PSA level of 6 isn't bad. Daddys ran around 6 for a few years just from the BPH(benign prostatic hypertophy) This just means it is enlarged, and iterrupts the urine flow, hard to get started, that kind of thing. But he has been on proscar for several years for that. Vonda said Davids PSA is 22 but he didn't want to have any other tests done either. I am pretty sure that Ruths brother in law just had something for Prostate Cancer, but can't remember. Fortunately, when you get as old as Daddy and Lee, it progresses slow . Daddys doctor told him one of his many other ailments would be what would take him out of this world. Daddy just laughed and said well he had plenty of 'em (ailments). But they are right, if it spreads it usually goes to the bones, starting in the hips.
Does anyone know what kind of cancer Mick had. I know it was something to do with his lungs and bones, but not sure
