My old mans dying of prostrate cancer (well the tertiaries etc) at the moment.
Plus being a smoker for half his life has come back to bite him, he's now on oxygen all the time at max level and pretty much totally bed ridden with very little lung function.
He's wasting away, which is hard to see as he had a union players(second rower/breakaway) build but gone to fat from his forties till now (72).
He's lasted a lot longer than the Dr expected.
Been very hard on my mother as she's still looking after him at home.
Will be up to visit them (Brisbane) again in sept/october, was up there a few weeks back).
That study doesn't mention if they were smokers or not and what their diets were like.
A lot of the dr's put it down to diet, exercise ,general health then hereditary factors after that.
For my old man they reckon it was lack of exercise, sitting down to much and being a smoker from 17 to 42.
Any of you guys had psa checks as part of your annual check ups ?
I'm due one soon, last one was spot on for under 40's.
Is it chicken that has the highest hormone levels ? (from the growth enhancers)
