As I said, we are all different. The reason "back in the day" almost five years ago that I opted to NOT get my final one month Lupron shot (to make the six...
Joe, You are so correct! Cryogenics is a science all its own. In the 1960s and 1970s as the primary engineer responsible for the Centaur vehicle propulsion...
That Centaur link is broken. Cut and paste this completely including the "_(rocket_stage)": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centaur_(rocket_stage) Fuller...
Fuller, About eight months into my two year stint on Lupron I was having real trouble with the mood swings in the depression. That's when I started reading...
Fuller that's an outstanding CV and thanks for the great work you've done for the ole USA. I can only imagine the experience of turning those engines on in a...
It's interesting how many engineers are Proton Patients. I'm a Chem. E.(Iowa State, 1970) - over 30 years with DuPont. I'm pretty sure Bob Marchini was a...
Not that we're officially proton patients (yet).. but I'm a Mech Engr and husband is a Chem E. No wonder we feel so at home with this group. Angela From:...
And I'm and Electrical Engineer so the technology is a natural. Wave vice kinetic energy I mean its a no brainer. I've been following the government attempts...
Good article, Richard. Turns out I have 2 sons & a daughter-in-law who are all pharma researchers for Pfizer in Groton, CT. Please indulge a proud dad here....
Is the fact that we are all highly trained scientists, engineers, M.D.'s etc that we are attracted to the Proton Beam Rx?? I believe that it is the major...
Could be we were drawn that way, but I glommed onto the new technology that I understood easily. There were no if's and's or but's. Everything seemed precise...
I wrote a rebuttal to the author of this article and am awaiting a reply. Rick Otey Sent wirelessly on my Lenovo Y430. Rick Otey P.O. Box 1584 Tremont, IL....
It's amazing the coverage this abstract got and the paper has not been presented yet. It's to come later this week in SF in the poster session and maybe this...
People get paid to do studies, write articles and I note the most valuable parameter is often overlooked. In this case, the good side effects. Unique side...
Some things to remember about the AP article reporting on an abstract from this week's ASCO SF convention dissing protons: 1. The abstract is from an...
Thanks, Joe, for that link. What I love is the English language: http://www.proton-therapy.org/randomized_trials.html ""But what's really needed," Lee said,...
Thanks Rick; I too would like to see a reply... but I am suspicious it will not be too enlightening. We'll see. The focus of any study about the side effects...

Dave, Thanks for putting your experience out there. I have not used antidepressants yet, but I think I will next time I am feeling low. Just knowing that it...
Chris I started on Lupron and Casodex on December 16th, and for the first 4 days had bizarre side effects. Trouble catching my breath, dizziness, not falling...
When I decided on Proton Therapy at MDA, I was advised that there was a 6% chance of some sort of bowel problem. This “study” implies an 18% chance. I...
Chris, Life is too short to put up with depression, whether as a side effect of Lupron or not. Men are notorious as a group for refusing to admit that they may...
fwiw, Dr. Snuffy Myers has just posted a video on this subject http://askdrmyers.wordpress.com/ <http://askdrmyers.wordpress.com/> ... days had bizarre side...
I just left UFPTI for my two year check up and they now provide a luncheon and afternoon program of presentations by doctors at the Institute. Over 250...
