===========================

 
The answers to questions submitted each week come from my 20+ years as a Medical Office Nurse along with ongoing education in nutritional and alternative treatment modes. Add that to many years of friendship with Dr. Wayne Garland, a very knowledgeable naturopath and herbologist, who many years ago, beat his cancer death sentence given by the traditional medical world, has helped along the alternatives path and hopefully help to give hope to those who need it... Also receiving a lot of study reports and try to ascertain if they are good or bad then report them to you, which has increased my knowledge along the way and I pass them on to you to use or not...

I am not a doctor or dentist and you should not think of me as one!!
My years observing life and health of the many people/patients around me and the contradictions of the traditional medical world's idea of treating - prescription domino effect - while watching those same schooled methods that aren't relieving illness but creating far more than they help. Those same medical professionals aren't telling people how to get healthy or how to prevent illness, which led me to look for something to change that premise for myself and those around me. In looking outside the Westernized medical profession I found and continue to find alternatives that really work to create health and longevity -when adhered to - beyond anything the traditional medical world can do...

Not to be used in place of your judgment but in  addition to... Even though I daily watch people become healthy with the information imparted here nothing works 100% of the time for 100% of people...

QUESTION:
 
I have a high PSA reading; Prostate. I am somewhat worried that I might be developing Cancer. My Hospital Doctor will be doing that horrible invasive Biopsy sometime soon. Is there an effective way of lowering this PSA reading?
I am aged 65 just six days ago.

 
BEFORE I ANSWERED I ASKED HIM?
How long has it been elevated and what is the PSA numbers?  Do you get up at night?  If so how many times? How is your urine stream? When I get those questions answered I will be able to give you a better idea of what to expect...
 
TO WHICH HE REPLIED.
Hi. It has been elevated for about 2 years. Sometimes it is 4.5 then 5, then 5.5 and up to 7.1 About two months ago it was as high as 10.1, after this reading, another blood test was carried out, and it was showing 5.6. My Urine stream is quite normal. I usually get up once or twice each night, however over the past  4 weeks, I had been getting up between 3 -  5  times.

Regards,
Ira.

 
ANSWER:
 
Let me say up front, if your PSA was done within 72 hours after having your prostate exam by the doctor it is going to be elevated and not mean a thing except it was upset at being bothered...
 
Now, for your age I wouldn't call those PSA's so high and wouldn't suggest poking and prodding either... Over an 8 to 11 consistently for a year or so you could say maybe but my dad's is in the 13's and has been for many years now... An over zealous fearful physician might want to get aggressive at that level but I would say no to him and give it a whole lot more time, The fact that you are getting up more lately says prostate is most likely BPH (enlarged/swollen), which isn't abnormal for any man over the age of 60... I can't tell you what you should do only you can decide that but if it were me I would tell them to take their biopsy and shove it, for a year to two at least... 99% of prostate biopsies are negative and a large number of those biopsied are left with residual affects that are worse than what you are already living. Even if you should have cancer, which I doubt you do, at your age you will most likely die from old age before prostate cancer, unless you let them start to mess around with it, which can create more problems than I think you want to even think about... My father (now 92) was diagnosed with Prostate cancer about 12 years ago and he was smart enough to tell them to leave it alone. When I got him off all his medications - 5 years ago - and put him on herbs and minerals he was getting up 7 to 9 times a night he said and went down to 0 times getting up after only a few days on them? He was very happy about that and informed me the minute he got up the first morning he slept all night... His PSA continues in the 12 to 13 range and luckily his doctor has gone along with his decision. My 72 year-old husband had BPH a few years ago as well as our 49 year-old son (post-testicular cancer) both have found relief with Master Formulas Life Transfusion Liquid Minerals and PSA Prostate Formula to control their problem. 
 
My son had one testicle removed, due to cancer, when he was 12 years old. That was due to the fact that I was given DES when pregnant with him that left many side effects for him, testicular cancer being one of those... His PSA is always off the chart, numbers wise, and has been for most of the years since his surgery, but he does nothing... Also the minerals and PSA Prostate Herbal Formula are what stopped my dad's getting up several times a night, as long as he doesn't drink liquids within the hour or two of going to bed...

There is only one lethal prostate cancer but even it left alone will not usually bring death for a very long time unless they start messing around with biopsy, chemo, hormones and/or surgery... I'm not saying you don't have cancer but I've known more men that had another 25 or so years without problems as long as they stayed away from the horrific offers of our conventional medicine practitioner.  Others should have lived longer but fear pushed them to let the doctor's do their thing and too soon the treatments killed them...
 
To answer your question; Yes, there is an alternative for treating the prostate, not necessarily lowering the PSA though.  Since 2006 release of a report stating that only 40% of PSA's were correct and 60% were incorrect, I wouldn't worry about the PSA numbers. Your doctor will tell you there isn't a alternative but I've seen the minerals and Prostate PSA herbal formula perform for many men with great success and their happiness..

I would like to add; just as the thyroid is the gateway to the other organs of the body, - most alternative medical practitioners believe the breakdown of the thyroid is the basis of cancer and the breakdown of the body's organs - the thyroid is directly connected to the male and female reproductive systems, which in men the prostate is part of, therefore you should think about working on the thyroid to get it balanced out... We do that when working with men and women to improve and/or heal their reproductive system as it is required for balance and healing... To determine if you could be in that group start by doing the home thyroid test to get an idea if that is part of your problem as well...

If I were a man and someone said biopsy my prostate I would give alternative medicine at least a twelve months try before I let them do it.

I hope this helps relieve your mind and at least gives you an alternative.

THE DANGER ZONE

Anger is just one letter short of danger -- it seems to be as true in English as well as in practice. Dr. Bedford Williams at Duke University has determined that students who score high on a "hostility test" are in far greater danger of dying young than their peers. In fact, those who are prone to anger are in greater physical danger than those who smoke, have high blood pressure or even high cholesterol.

Not that we should never be angry. It is a normal part of life. We all get "worked up," "overheated" or just plain "hopping mad" at times. Those closest to us know it best. (Just ask my kids!)

One little boy said about his mother: "When she starts to act real weird, you have to look scared and serious. Don't giggle. When mommies are mad, they get madder when you giggle."

The good news is that simply getting angry does not seem to be the problem. Well-directed anger can be a helpful emotion. But STAYING angry is dangerous -- to our health and to our relationships.

Here are four simple steps that can help move us out of the danger zone when we feel as if our hostility is running the show.

1. Control it. Uncontrolled anger will take over.

2. Talk it out. Don't keep it in and let it fester.

3. Act on it. Do what needs to be done to resolve the situation. Helplessness will only provoke more anger and, eventually, despair.

4. End it. Just as there is a starting point for anger, there must be an ending. Make a decision not to prolong destructive hostility.

It can help to remember that for every minute we're angry, we lose sixty seconds of happiness and sixty seconds of peace. The sooner we get out of the danger zone, the sooner we can get back to trul
y living.
