Marvin Blumberg was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1992 at age 65. This is his story, his journey, through treatment. (He chose radiation at Memorial Sloan Kettering.) As he reports in his latest Update (4/10/02), he is well and his PSA continues below 1. He wrote this account to help other men. It was first posted to Oncolink in 1997 and is reposted here at Phoenix5 with his kind permission and that of Oncolink, at the University of Pennsylvania Cancer Center.
