Biopsy yesterday. Results in a week. Fingers crossed Wink

Thanks everyone...

Hoping all best for you, Den.

I've waited out four of them.

The newer biopsy is a more thorough 48 sample all at once, which they put you under for I hear, has been recommended as another follow up. It saves multiple incursions if they think maybe they missed it with previous samples through time of 10, 12, 12, and 14. With a prolonged PSA over 9, still negative somehow.

Not a comfy procedure. Yer a touch sore and seeing blood, both ways.

I hope you are negative forever.

Yea, they're not too forthcoming with that info before you have the procedure...

48 samples? They'd have to knock me out. 12 was painful enough.

kind of back tracking here, I was thinking about something I believe was posted a while back in this thread, tried to find it but, man, that's a lot of posts to read through Cheesy

anyways, someone had mentioned triggering with cologne to see if the HA was still there, but just under the surface.

Just wondering if it might be the alcohol in the cologne that causes that trigger?

Any thing causing heat could be a trigger.
alcohol, pepper, ginger, spicy foods, onion, garlic, ...

Try the rubber band;

Brew, with that tight rubber band on your thumb you do not let the blood reach your brain. Thats why you can not think scientifically.

Sorry...been away on vacation for a few weeks

It was I that had posted re. cologne...for me any strong smell can potentially trigger a CH... petroleum products like gas, diesel, alcohol based procducts, oil based paints etc.

For me, even with my CH supressed with hormone supplimentation, these "triggers" can still cause a rapid reminder of all things horrible.

HRT is holding well for me.

It was my first vacation in 17 years....normally i would be laid up continuously with CH every winter (30 years)..... and my business is seasonal(summer) when i work 16 hour days...so no holidays.

After two winters with no CH i decided to do it and take a vacation....three weeks at a waterfront house in sunny Florida....soooo relaxing i placed a deposit on 6 weeks for next winter!

When a management is found for CH, one's life can change dramatically.

How I wish I could snap my fingers and give everyone the result I am experiencing.
