Kappa Kappa Psi Fraternity Ring (ΚΚΨ) – Classic Man Series, Dual Finish #KKPsi #FratLife
Getting checked most men most recommendations recommend African-American men at the age of 40 white man at the age of 55 40 for us because of the higher uh incidents of prostate cancer and the higher chances of us dying from prostate cancer the recommendation as I earlier mentioned
Blood test and the recro examination now a biopsy is when an ultrasound probe is very carefully inserted into the uh rectum the prostate is measured and several pieces of tissue are taken from the prostate to determine if there is cancer in the speci next if there is cancer in the uh prostate gland
Then the next concern is whether the cancer is just within the prostate or whether it has spray now there are several stages of prostate cancer that are shown there stage one of prostate cancer is cancer is present but we can’t feel it on the re examination so the only way that we know
That cancer is present is by the PSA test stage two cancer is present but we now can fill it on the rec examination stage one and stage two of prostate cancer are early stages of prostate cancer that’s when cancer is curable stage three cancer is present
But it has just begun to spread outside of the prostate gland okay and stage four is when it has not only spread outside the prostate gland but it has also begun to spread distantly to the rectum to the Bone to the brain to the lung lymph nose um around on your neck
Etc one option that’s become much more common these days is what’s called active surveillance active surveillance means yes I know I have prostate cancer but based upon all of the tests that I’ve taken it appears that my cancer is slow growing and if it’s slow growing
Then I have time to watch it okay certain the way the most common way in which we do prostate cancer surgery these days is using a robot so robotic surgery radiation there’s various forms of radiation that that one can use and you have to uh talk with your radiation
Doctor to determine which form uh is Mo most common in in U your area active surveillance means that every three to 6 months I’m getting a blood test checking my PSA and as long as my PSA stays stable then we can continue to watch it every
Year you should get a biopsy just to make sure that there has not been any progression of the prostate cancer prostate we’re feeling for nodules we’re feeling for consistency and we’re feeling for Symmetry and if there’s any abnormality in any of those then that’s a sign to us that we should do further
Testing I can’t understand what you’re saying cuz in 2021 at uh PSA level 2.99 2023 it went up to 7.76 I have done my second biopsy uh in the past three years up until yesterday up until the pck I was petrified amen I was petrified I know I was
Busted CU I didn’t know what was going to happen found out my grandfather had pants from it and it ran into my family and just you know just by the work I do you know I never thought that I would be taken out by cancer but um I got the
Call yesterday before the picnic they say I was negative so he said he doesn’t have insurance what do he do we do a health initiative every year and we have a phys there that does the PSA or it can do the other exam for you too so just FYI that’s one of
The reason we do this because we’re to make Health Care available for everybody
