Al Roker Shares Update On His Prostate Cancer Surgery | TODAY

glad al's doing great keeping him and his family in my thoughts and prayers

My dad had prostate cancer a couple years ago. He was able to treat it with radiation for a few months. It's gone now, and he's fine. It's a scary thing to go through, and triring depending on the treatment method, but there's a way out, and there's light on the other side. I'm glad Al is doing well.

I had robotic prostate surgery, 23 July this year, YES early detection is the key, get regular PSA tests, mine was 3.5 flatline for over 10 years, then took off last year. My recovery has been fantastic, back @ work within a week & haven’t looked back.
Surgery was carried out here in Australia @ the Peter Mac Cancer Centre, this place is world class.
My PSA is now undetectable.

Al, I’m a 3 year survivor. You can still have a fabulous life my friend !!

As someone who had a prostatectomy 2 weeks ago for aggressive cancer I wish you the best of luck.

Al, my husband has been going through the same thing. He had his prostrate removed in February. He is currently going through screening every 3 months. 🙏 for you.

Thank you for this video. I have a prostate biopsy on Wednesday. If mine turns out to be like Al's, I have already made up my mind to have the prostate removed, too. I am 63 yo. I have a heavy cancer history in my family. I had a PSA test, and I scored a 5.1 with a rise from 3.0 to 5.1 in just 2 years. Thank you.

I elected to have my prostate removed 18 months ago. It changed a few things but with no worries about prostate cancer it's definitely worth it. Peace of mind!

[a.b.williams]

Hang in there Al. You are certainly an inspiration for me and my husband.

[roypribble]

Got same diagnosis 6 years ago, but being 75 years, and only a 4% of cancer, chose radiation. So far the PSA has dropped every year, now at .27. Glad to see your doing well.

[sandraklein]

I wish you only the best Al. Get well soon!👍🌞😁💕
