Further to this question on when to acknowledge the onset of recurrence and when to treat, Noah joins me again with two new PSA results, using different assays. Noah Davis - “I think she’s (oncologist) looking at it as a multivariable equation and I don’t think there’s easy answers here. My question is - what’s the risk in waiting?“ You can contact Murray through his author website www.sheeporwolfcancer.com Memento mori – just not from cancer!

Guest Noah Davis is currently navigating the challenges and disparities with identifying recurrence post surgery. Noah Davis - “I am getting different opinions.

Emmy winning sportscaster Vic Lombardi joins me to unravel the misinformation surrounding prostate cancer screening and to share his efforts to stave off ADT. Vic Lombardi - “I make sure to tell men, you get in there, and if you have any concerns whatsoever, you demand this test. You don’t ask for it, you demand it. Big difference. For most men with very low PSA imaging doesn’t do much good. But the point I am trying to make is, how would you know unless you try?” You can contact Murray through his author web site www.sheeporwolfcancer.com Memento mori – just not from cancer!

My guest today is a friend from high school, Adolfo Alvarez, retired general and bariatric surgeon. My hope for this episode is that it will help others avoid being adversely affected. Adolfo - “The only way that we can continue to be in business and continue to provide health care for a million people is to acknowledge that a thousand of those million are going to be adversely affected by the fact that we didn’t act sooner because we had no evidence to act sooner”.

Just weeks before the IRONMAN World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, Rachel was hit by a reckless driver. Relying on her RN and athletic training experiences, Rachel defied the odds and found a way to begin walking and cycling, again.
