  1. Weed is stonk, right?

    Where y'all at on stuff like (in order is stonk-ness?) -

    $CNBS
    $IIPR
    $TSNDF
    $CURLF
    $GTBIF
    $CNTMF
    $JUSHF

    Are things like Schedule III, SafeBanking, PA use, Germany opening up, etc. already "baked" in?

  2. "boosters" or '23-'24 version on the mRNA vaccines? I assume it would be bigger news if the new vaccine wasn't working.

    Doesn’t appear to be a strong relationship between boosting and cases at this point.

  3. They were initially favored because they had a 0 and Alabama had a 1 in their record and then as lines work....people have continued to bet on Michigan.  
    Gotta be a trap, right?


  4. Anyone have Da Vinci single port (SP) robotic surgery?  First surgeon said that’s all he does now. Second surgeon said it was complicated and stayed with multi-port XI system. First MDs recovery times, and complication rates were impressive (if accurate). 


    No. UTSW used multi-port.
  5. Two weeks after prostatectomy, Dr. prescribed tadalafil 5 mg (Cialis) daily until I want a boner-then to munch like 5 or 6.

    No E.D. or prostate symptoms before surgery.

    Y'all know if that is pretty routine recovery protocol?

  6. Michigan doesn’t need to know Purdue’s play calls to cover that spread. Purdue is dreadful, the weasels are pissed, and Harbaugh won’t hesitate to run up the score. It’s a night game at the big house and Michigan has had two weeks to prepare. Purdue, who is coming off a double-digit loss at Nebraska, of all places, is walking into a buzzsaw. 
    My book has it at -32 though.
  7. To be more helpful - all this started for me because at 56 I had a 4.79 PSA at physical in April with no prostate/ED symptoms and a passed digital rectal exam. Take advantage of any early warning signs you are given.

  8. Woohorn - let us know how you’re doing. 


    Thx. I am 2 days behind Hate in the process so 48 hrs without catheter. Learning how to hold my piss again.

    Random nasty bruises showed up yesterday around my laparoscopy scars and my abs are still burn pretty bad from the surgery but I am otherwise feeling pretty normal. I lift brah, but can't imagine being able to get back into the gym for months.

    Haven't talked to surgeon but pathology report posted and is great-clean surgical margins, no extension outside the prostate, no change in tumor grade, and lots of nodes removed and all negative. Focusing on bladder control and gauging E.D. consequences.

    Almost reluctant to post any complaints when so many here are bravely battling, but that is the nature of prostate cancer/early detection these days. It really pays to keep up with annual physicals and PSA test follow-ups. If you get a chance to catch it early-take it and just work through the steps.

  9. If it comes back after surgery, all treatment options would be on the table. That would not be the case after radiation.


    You made the correct choice in your 50s. Radiologist told me retreatment option after radiation was basically chemical castration.

    Think I remember hearing a 10-20% chance of being completely cured after surgery with Gleason 7, but otherwise it will come back if you live long enough.
