In just a few minutes, I go to find out the results of my PSA test. I'm about as nervous as I ever get, which is to say, not much. Pray for me anyway, if you do that sort of thing. BBL.

Good luck. :)

Prayer works for me. Then again, I might be considered old school. Just remember, a low PSA score doesn't mean you're really in the clear - only a biopsy can really tell for sure.

Good luck from me too. :)

I'm going to have to claim ignorance. What is a PSA test?

Don't worry yourself. I've got a feeling you'll be ok.

Lycka till!

(Good luck in Swedish)

I'm going to have to claim ignorance. What is a PSA test?

Prostate Specific Antigen. It's a substance that is usually presnt in the bloodstream that is present in larger quantities in patients with prostate blockages. The most well-known and feared blockage is prostate cancer.

Eutrusca had surgery for prostate cancer and he's hoping that the PSA count is low as that is a strong indicator that they got all of it.

I don't think he has anything to worry about. He's too mean to die young. He'll live to be 130. :)

Good luck!

Ah ha. I do remember when he had the surgery. Now I understand.

Good luck!

well good luck hope it goes well for you (I know its bloody scary waiting for test results for things) but remember the human body is a lot more resilient then you might think (especially if your sure you will get better (don't ask me why but positive thinking/faith/whatever does seem to do something don't know why))

I know it won't change the result, but I still sincerely wish you good luck.

ROFL! Uh huh. I wish ... or do I???

As usual, your post is a unique mix of factual data mingled with a generous dollop of offbeat humor. :D

Bonne chance! :)

This interesting site goes a long way toward supporting your statement: http://home.xnet.com/~spindrif/index.htm

My younger son was going to drop me off at the doctor's office on his way to an appointment, but his car is having problems. My youngest daughter will be driving me over closer to my 1:45 doctor's appointment, so you're all stuck with me for awhile longer! Mwahahaha! :D

Not to put too fine a point on it, Eut, but I think most of us would just as soon be stuck with you for a good long time yet. :) Your company is, and ever has been, most entertaining.

Awww! That makes me feel good! :fluffle:

"Entertaining?" Even when we disagree??? ( Perhaps especially when we disagree? ) :D

I will send super good smunkee-type prayers in your direction :D

Arghh, that's scary.

Good luck with the results.

Best wishes, Eut.

How well you know me...:)

That's how I see the world; A unique mix of factual data mingled with a generous dollop of offbeat humor. :)

Couldn't ask for anything better than that! :fluffle:

ROFL! The Wise and Perspecatious Eutrusca sees all, knows all, and tells very little! :D

Which actually isn't a bad way to see the world at all! :D

you damn well better be okay, old man, or I may come down there and beat you;)


I still have alot of harassing to get done.

Best wishes-I'll be waiting to hear how it went

Good luck mate, wouldn't like to see you down in a hurry. :fluffle:

Best of wishes.

*mentions Eut´s well-being and the continued need thereof to the Weltgeist*

edit: I just noticed how stupid this may sounds, given that I´m mostly a lurker, not a poster, but still: hope the test results are in your favor.

:fluffle:

Best of luck. I'll be thinking about you.
*crosses fingers*
:)

Best of luck, and if it's bad news, at least you've had a good innings.

Actually it's always seemed to me we're built rather poorly....


But yeah, good luck to Eut. I haven't had a chance to get to know him well yet, he'd better stick around.

Held og lykke ( Good luck in Danish )

Best wishes

Hang in there Eut!

You should be fine.

After all God doesn't want you around! ;)

LOL! Possibly not. I don't suppose he would like me trying to get all the angels to march in formation. :D

BTW ... my PSA hasn't changed ... still almost zero. The doctor was very cautious ( as all doctors are ) and said that he would prefer if it were "completely zero," but he gave me a prescription for Cialis. That tells me something anyway. :D

Starts singing: "I've got a ticket to ride!" :D

Death to all blockages! May all cancer drown in the righteous remission!

Long live Eutrusca!

May all doctors you see have big bitchin' grins when they walk in the door!

Long live Eutrusca!

Seriously, live a long time.

LOL! Well, I promise to do my best. How's that? :D

Heh!

BTW ... did I ever tell you about the time I kicked Chukie-baby's ass? :D

LOL! Well, I promise to do my best. How's that? :D

Yeah, you know, maybe you should start writing things down, so 100 years from now when the podborgs are asking you what life was like back now, you'll have notes to work from.

ROFL! Uh huh. Or maybe I'll just refer them to the NS General archives. :D

What are you going to do when your post-count rolls over like the odometer on a Buick Roadmaster?
