DRE and PSA snnceeirg are part of my routine on all men after the age of 50. At least we will have a base line to follow. I remember when snnceeirg mammography and pap smears were considered unnecessary and the government questioned their coverage. Who would challenge that now?

[...] “Public Parts” looks at the meaning of privacy and “publicness,” secrecy and openness, opacity and transparency for individuals, businesses and governments in the age of Facebook and Foursquare, Twitter and Tumblr, search and social. Jarvis looks at each in detail with humor and grace—perhaps not unexpected for someone willing to live his life so publicly. [...]

Jeff Thank you for writing this. As with everything you write it was well written. It was informative, some parts had me laughing then the next line I was like a deer in the headlights with an “Oh that’s what happens” moment.

Good luck with everything. I hope the positives continue to outweigh the negatives.

Orgasm is perceived from the mind. Which is to say that you can still have an orgasm in your situation. Look up information on mind-based orgasms if you are interested. Good luck.

Jeff:

Thank you for going boldly where few men want to go… your blog is an important contribution to raising awareness and acceptance of this disease that affects 1 in every 6 American men.

We are making progress, one step, one open discussion at a time!

Best regards,

Jeff,

Bravo (belated) for sharing. I’ve followed your comments for months about “publicy” (opposite of privacy?) but reading this post is the first time I’ve seen any good reason for the openness. Not everyone can force it, it seems to me to be like nudity. Thanks for sharing this, I’m sure many thousands would benefit from what you say so clearly. Before it, I saw you as someone like Prok from the Inner Circle. Maybe the Kinsey report did a lot of good, but not everyone could do what those guys did and talk about it

CWiliams:
I’m doing well. It’s nice to know that the cancer is out of me — fingers always crossed — and that the side effects I’m going to have I already have. For me, the choices was somewhat psychological: I wanted the stuff out of me and I didn’t want to worry about the lingering chance of side effects emerging later.
Good luck with yours!

Hi I just wanted to add thank you for making this something we can talk about.My husband had his prostate removed last september 2008.I can tell you it was a hard decision for him to make to have it removed but my begging him helped him as it runs in his family of men.we decited on the robotic surgery.We went thru the pad stage which went away after about two months that was hard on him.I can tell you that every stage is different he goes thru emotions due to his man hood.yes he has become unable to get erections we tried the pills nothing started to give him head aches so I said it wasn’t worth it for us to try something else less dangerous so we tried the injections but he only did it once he can’t handle the needle thing so now we are doing nothing I am happy with that because I can’t be without him my life would just never be the same if I couldn’t see him,touch him, smell him.I am a stronge woman because of him I have never been happier in my life but I feel that going thru this is very hard on him.I wish the doctors would offer us therapy for men who go thru this because I feel they need to be able to talk about it .I feel he feels that a part of him has died because he has changed.I just want to tell everyone out there that yes it’s not something easy to go thru but don’t wait because it’s not something you want to play with.We are very happy and taking baby steps and see improvements as time goes on.I just wanted to share the moments and emotions we all go thru but in the end it’s worth seeing him and holding him and be able to smell him everyday that makes it all worth it!Thank you again.

Best of luck with this. It takes a strong man to post about something like this. And then to go This Week in Google and talk about it further.

I think things like this would be less scary if more people were willing to speak candidly about it.

I think you should be complimented. Therefore, I send you my complements!
