azgreg Had my first post 60 physical. I'm now on Tamsulosin for my prostate and Lisinopril for my blood pressure along with a blood pressure machine for dailey testing.

And now I'm also on Atorvastatin.

    azgreg Be careful with that stuff. My wife was on it and her idiot doc prescribed too high a dose. She wound up in the ER getting several IV bags of fluid to flush it out. It was literally breaking down the muscle in her body. Her 2nd opinion doc said she should have never even been on a statin.

    Am I the only one here that is not on drugs?
    My PSA makes all yours look like a GPA for high school.
    And it went down .8 the past year.πŸ˜‰

      sdandrea1 All my doctors want to do is stick fingers up my ass and shove lighted hoses in my dick.
      No mention of drugs and such.....not exciting for them apparently.

        Par4QC Am I the only one here that is not on drugs?

        No drugs for me. Well some blood thinners: Angels Envy, Titos, et al.

        azgreg You can get that done behind the bus station cheaper. Welcome to my Ted Talk.

        jsippy73 What drug for prostate, don't know of any?

        Tamsulosin/Flomax is a bladder relaxer. Finasteride (and some other "ide's") is supposed to shrink the prostate gland. The ultimate fix is to reduce the gland's size so that it's not impinging urine flow. Laser, clamps, etc. Google it.

          I used to take the flomax many years ago. I had 40 radiation treatments and used it some for a while after that. Have PSA test every 3 months. Been holding pretty steady with a slight rise until now. Want to do a head to toe scan if up any next time. I know I will not do chemo or hormones. Know a couple that did and they said never again. Doing my own treatments as we speak. Unconventional with the medical field.
