Do you read your Yahoo email? Since I'm the guy with all the science (and a med school background), I'm running interference for my friend on this right now.
Money is not an issue here. The issue that I can see is precisely what my friend does once he gets tossed out on his ear by the urologist for choosing to go AMA. I'm a member of Life Extension Foundation. I'm going to send an email to them to see if they know of any doctors in Austin who'd be wiling to help with this. My friend will really need a way to see if the alternate therapies are working. That means he'd need a doctor to periodically test his PSA, as PSA appears in this case to be a reliable indicator of the progression of my friend's prostate cancer. If, with alternate therapy, the PSA continues to rise, at some point he'd have to call off the alternate treatment, go for another biopsy and the surgery. Any thoughts on how to handle this? I am familiar with the curcumin and resveratrol. I also know that for about 3 years my friend was taking LDN. It's entirely possible that my friend's PSA took 7 years to go from 4 to 12 and not a higher reading because of the LDN. But I'd advise my friend that if he can't almost immediately get his PSA down to perhaps 10, he's got to bite the bullet and have the surgery. If he can get his PSA down below 10 and keep it there, well, he can buy sufficient time for truly targetted anti-prostate cancer treatments to be developed and have the cancer killed with a "magic bullet". Of course if the alternate treatment keeps getting his PSA down, so much the better. Now to get someone to measure his PSA. There's always the south of the Rio Grande route but that's a little scary. Perhaps LEF offers PSA testing.
