Is it something to do with removing Retsina( which ALWAYS tastes of Turpentine to me) from your system???

A TURP is a Roto Rooter job on one's prostate gland. Mine helped a bunch. Now I just "go with the flow" (so to speak).

They do check the bits and pieces. Mine was not benign. But what the hell, it's early and slow-growing they tell me. Something else'll get me before that does. A PSA every 6 months since '97 indicates no change and very low number. Just had another one today and all is fine---no change. This is cancer, yes, but it's the least of my problems.
