 Another revelation talked about was that there has been some research into statin use and allegedly it is a good thing to be taking if you have PC, also a small aspirin. Statically better with than without. Now I’m open mouthed because I think maybe we are in the wrong room and have slipped into cardiology somehow. 
BW  now totally onboard and eyeing up my aspirin and possibly one of the only people I know that is thinking about asking his GP for statins.

Now I have read that somewhere - and have been on them for years. Not had the one about aspirin.

Yes - to me these are strange times and it's me it's happening to, however I have faith in my team so "Happy Days".

Kind Regards - Brian. xx

Yes I agree . They definitely know what they are doing 

I’ve looked up the statin claim and it appears to be … true ! ?? I think it’s worth looking at.

You can't say more than that can you!

Hi Brian,

Well, that is a positive result from the medics as you had already guessed that something was afoot, & they are now going to be on your case every 3 months. 

I was going to suggest booking another trip to your holiday home but you have already beaten me to it.  4 weeks time you will be back there again, & why not.

Best Wishes

Brian

To true I don't see my oncologist till November so I don't think about pc I just enjoy each day...I cope better. 

Hi Brian good to hear that you are approaching this new challenge with your usual upbeat and positive approach.Enjoy your holiday and sending best wishes your way.  Gailx

Hi  L, from someone from cardiology, regarding asprin as a prevention or treatment for PCa, I've never found any good evidence of it merits as a treatment, but appears to lower your risk of developing PCa, to some degree, but it's much more effective in reducing colorectal occurrence.

As for statins, they have been shown to lower the risk of developing PCa, but I have never found anything regarding a treatment, 

Though metaflorin, a diabetes treatment, shows good results as a treatment, disrupting the ARF in cancer cells, stopping them from growing, as well as interfering with how cancer cells use glucose which they need for survival and progression 

The use of metaformin and statins together has shown a significant reduction in PCa cases,
