I'm thinking of getting PAE but hesitant. My doctor says my prostrate is 215 cc and that is too large for him to do TURP so he recommended I go for PAE. I went for a second opinion and this doctor says he's done many this size, He is in his late 60s, 70s and has more experience than the younger doctors. If PAE doesn't work I'll go to him for the TURP. I hope I'm making the right decision. Does anyone have an opinion?
I scored a 255 at age 46, which is in the 98th percentile for my age. I have exercised (1 hour of cardo + weights) 6-7 days/week for over 30 years religiously. I eat an extremely healthy diet, am extremely fit, never been overwieght. Blood pressure and cholesterol are both normal and I check them regularly. I had my lipoprotein a tested recently and it was only 14 which is optimal. There is literally no explanation whatsoever for the high score. My parents are both alive and well and in their mid-70s. My grandfathers lived until their mid-80s with no heart issues. I was shocked when I got the score. There is nothing in my lifestyle to modify so I don't even know what to do.
This a treatment not a cure. The prostate is inflamed from bacteria. The only proven cure is to inject antibiotic cocktail directly into prostate for 30-45 days. I know 2 urologist with bph and had this treatment done in China and they are cured.....not treated.
On one hand the video says this Y-90 procedure is not curative. On the other hand the video discusses how the patient can return to a normal lifestyle that he had before learning of the cancer tumor. With this in mind, can the Y-90 procedure effectively eradicate the inoperable cancer tumor(s)...especially if the tumors are 2-3 cm or less?
Yes! I just had 5 blasted. 1st half in Feb, 2nd half March 5. In 2 months we will see. I do not feel any “activity” in my liver and my markers went from the 80’s to the 40’s in a week. They were over 400 but I also do dr burzynskis protocol and it has changed things drastically. I wish you the very best! This is not an easy journey that’s for sure
Nothing said about gender or age. BOTH are major factors relating to your score. Risk is measured against others with similar age and gender. You simple can’t lump everyone into the same parameter
I am very excited to drop this article here and it would really help those in need of a permanent cure ,remedy for cancer virus i was really a living testimony of this virus ,immediately i came across Dr osuma on RU-vid channel then i believe herbs really do work in situations like this and I'm very happy I am free all thanks to dr osuma !!
The doctor didn't mention that a woman who has a Hysterectomy before she's old enough to get a bone density test should have one done. A Hysterectomy causes early menopause. Menopause can weaken bones.
Calcium scores are used as markers that show, calcified lesions which are a result of arterial wall disease caused by blood clots, they can rupture then the body will deposit more red blood cells plus calcium to seal the wound on the arterial wall. Heart Attack: Leads all other deaths in the world, strokes are right in there. Some people never have heart attacks, but, people with NO SYMPTOMS or Asymptomatic don't have a clue something is wrong unless a doctor determines there is something suspicious. Nothing wrong with having a 10-minute 100-dollar test done. It is the best alternative to being paralyzed by a stroke or both and has a very poor quality of life. Seed oils, Lard, Bacon, a Fatty meat diet, sedentary lifestyle are not friends. I was an X-ray tech long before these really good tests came along. Enlarged heart measurements, lung diaphragm angles, and BP were used but never indicators of imminent heart disease which are now found in younger patients. My dad suffered a full coronary- age 41 and had to have a quadruple bypass. then had to have his carotid artery replaced. He died at age 57 and did not have a good quality of life and my mother struggled to take care of him which are very hard and arduous task. He has no idea he had a problem.
I had no idea how simple this test would be. I have an appointment this afternoon and it has been rescheduled 3 times! It sounds invasive and I avoided it. Thank you for sharing! ❤
Times used to be very Challenging, i had the Worst days of my life living with fibroid, Appreciate you so much Dr igho, your Herbal medication worked perfectly fine & shrieked my fibroid , rather than going through all the potentially harmful methods of actually trying to shrink my fibroid.
It was challenging and unbearable because of how critical my health situation was. but I am grateful and happy to have ordered Dr Aluda herbal supplements on RU-vid which I used and it shrunk my multiple fibroids🌿🌿
Is it true that the DEXA bone scan measures the bone density for all women using a 35yr old female? And is only tells you how much your bone absorbs Xray's... It DOESN'T tell you the quality...DEXA is a scam. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-268wR42VWos.html
I had a calcium score of 1,000 two years ago when I was 78. They wanted me to come back for more CT scans and talk to a Cardiologist and have more tests done. I refused, so we will see. My buddy had a score of around 2,000 he had the full workup with a Cardiologist and the Cardiologist basically said don't worry about it. My brother who is sixty just had one done and he had a score of 1,200, he also had the full workup and the Cardiologist said he was also fine and should not have any problems for another 20 years. Most insurance companies do not pay for this score, so hospitals will offer testing for $50.00, that is definitely a loss leader to get more patients in for treatment. I question how valid the calcium score is in predicting a future heart attack.
