Subject: [Leica] OT Panel advises against prostate cancer

I have to say that my father died from prostate CA. And three years ago I 
was saved from this fate but my GP and Urologist who had tracked an 
elevating PSA over a of couple of years. Biopsy provided evidence. Davinci 
robotic surgery left no side effects. 
So, despite the new official recommendations, I would encourage anyone 
within a higher risk group (ie: family history) to monitor their PSA levels 
until some other method of diagnosis is discovered.
