Can you share a little bit about 52 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 2: your background and how you got into sports medicine. 53 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 4: Guys, First of all, thank you for having me big 54 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 4: fan of your show. How I thought it was very simple. 55 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 4: I wanted to be a professional athlete. I wanted to 56 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 4: be a pro tennis player. It turned out I was 57 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 4: too short, and I got a scholarship to go study 58 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 4: medicine in the United Kingdom in the UK, and so 59 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 4: my mom and my. 60 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 3: Coach were like, no, you need to go be a doctor. 61 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 4: So they were right though, I turned out to be 62 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 4: a much better doctor than I ever would have been 63 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 4: a tennis player. So that's how I got into medicine, 64 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 4: and then I trained in the UK. After graduating medical school, 65 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 4: I trained as a surgeon. I didn't quite like it, 66 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 4: even though I got bought certified, and then I swopped 67 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 4: to train in emergency medicine. 68 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 3: And during that time. 69 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 4: I discovered a kid came in with a sprained ankle 70 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 4: and he asked me a very simple question, when can 71 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 4: I play tennis again? 72 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 3: Right? 73 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 4: And I realized like, despite all my training, all my studying, 74 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 4: I couldn't answer the question. And so that then got 75 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 4: me into studying sports medicine. And from there, you know, 76 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 4: I started working with fortunately in golf, with a lot 77 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 4: of European tour players and it just snowball from there. 78 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: Guys, what's it like being a personal physician on say, 79 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: the PGA Tour.

I get to 87 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 4: see the one side of them that makes them incredible 88 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 4: at what they do. And then on the other side, 89 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 4: how They are just every bit like you and me. 90 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 4: You know, they have the same problems, the same issues 91 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 4: I deal with. 92 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 3: You know, it's not all glamorous. 93 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 2: You know. 94 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 4: I also work in the emergency room, so it's not 95 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,679 Speaker 4: all trauma. You know, you deal with coughs and calls, 96 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 4: and so these guys have the same thing. And then 97 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 4: I've I've you know, I mean I've seen everything, and 98 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 4: I've had a guy who was playing in Oman who 99 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 4: called me up at two am and said, hey, my 100 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 4: my testicle is painful. 101 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 3: What do I do? 102 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 4: I'm going to tee up in two hours and can 103 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 4: balue walk. So, you know, try solving that problem from. 104 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 2: Here, that is an interesting problem to have to solve. 105 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 2: And and thank goodness there are people that you can 106 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 2: go to to help you with with doing So let 107 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 2: me ask you, this, doc, What's what's one thing you 108 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 2: wish more men understood about their health? 109 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 4: I think most men are. They delay their care, they 110 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 4: delay their approach to health. You know, they put it behind. 111 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 4: You know, if you if you go back and look 112 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 4: at us, like we are hunters by by nature, right, 113 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 4: hunter gatherers, so we were the hunters. Hunters have to 114 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 4: get a job done. They can't you know, if your 115 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 4: elbow hurt, your knee hurts, you got to go hunt, 116 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 4: you got to feed the family, so you get things done. 117 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 4: And that's that evolution has an changed. So for most part, 118 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 4: I would say, you know, most men, they have other 119 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 4: priorities in life and they put that ahead before seeking 120 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 4: medical advice. Right, that's number one, And then number two, 121 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 4: I think many men, like I see this in the 122 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 4: er all the time. Men are fearful. Women are much 123 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 4: more open and coming seeing doctor having a conversation early 124 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 4: than men are. Oftentimes, when by the time a man 125 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 4: comes in and he's been having chess plain for six months, 126 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 4: and I say, well, what took you so long? And 127 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 4: the wife will say, you know, he's stubborn, but he's 128 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 4: actually fearful. He doesn't want to deal with, you know, 129 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 4: all the potential things it could be, all the bad 130 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 4: things and what it could mean, and so often they 131 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 4: put things off. And what I'd like to say is 132 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 4: that may have been through many moons ago, but we 133 00:06:53,960 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 4: live at a time when technology, treatment, diagnosis, everything is 134 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 4: so much better. 135 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 3: There are so many diseases. 136 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 4: When I was training as a medical medical student, you know, 137 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 4: those diseases were deadly, and now they are reversible. We 138 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 4: have medications. You know, chemotherapy used to be brutal, and 139 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 4: now people get in, go home, and you know, come 140 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 4: back to the clinic, get their treatment tablet form no 141 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 4: IV with minimum side effects. So if you can pick 142 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 4: it up early, we can get a great outcome. 143 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: And you mentioned you know men, you know, being hesitant 144 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: to want to go see the doctor. Do you see 145 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: this among pro athletes as well too, or is it 146 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: more of a general population issue. 147 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 4: Oh, they are just as bad. Oh, trust me, they 148 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 4: are just as bad. You have no I mean last 149 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 4: week I was working abroad on Live and I had 150 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 4: a guy with a wrist issue and he had he'd 151 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 4: had the pain for weeks, and I'd seen him multiple times. 152 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 4: Never once did he say anything, you know, And I 153 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 4: was like, why didn't you say something sooner? And sure 154 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 4: enough the answer was exactly the same, like, hey, you know, 155 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 4: I didn't want to deal with it. 156 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 3: I wanted to compete. I wanted to you know. 157 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 4: So yeah, no, like I said, as I get to 158 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 4: see the human side to them, and they are exactly 159 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 4: the same as all the rest of us, no different. 160 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 2: How do you explain the importance of regular checkups to 161 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 2: guys who basically right now they feel fine. 162 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 4: You know, feeling fine is kind of a low benchmark, 163 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 4: you know if you think about it. Right, your car, 164 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,959 Speaker 4: you have scheduled maintenance and most people will take time 165 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 4: out of the day to go get their car service. 166 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 4: Your AC filter needs to be changed regularly otherwise you're 167 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,839 Speaker 4: going to run into trouble.

Thirdly, 225 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 4: I would say move rather than exercise. I would consider like, 226 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 4: think of it as movement. And when it comes to movement, 227 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 4: I want your listeners to make sure they understand that. 228 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 4: For every single one of you.

There are five components to movement, and it 231 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 4: doesn't matter who you are, at what stage you are. 232 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 4: If you can only walk around your block, well, one day, 233 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 4: try to walk it a little bit faster, you know, 234 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 4: one day, try to endurance and say, okay, you know what, 235 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 4: let me see if I can walk a block in 236 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 4: a bit more, you know, adding strength to your walk. 237 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 4: Anything that you can do to incorporate all five components 238 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 4: will help you get healthier faster. And then you know, 239 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 4: there's old adage that I like, you know, eat less, 240 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:03,199 Speaker 4: but eat better, and finally, hydrate like half your body weight. 241 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 4: There's two things, sleep and hydration. If you give this up, 242 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 4: you're giving up huge, huge, huge advantages in life as general. 243 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 4: So hydration is at a BAM minimum. Whatever you weigh 244 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,559 Speaker 4: in pounds, drink half of that in oounce us of water. 245 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 3: There you go. 246 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: So we're going to be back right here with doctor Arasapaya. 247 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere here on this special edition of two 248 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,679 Speaker 1: Pros and a Cup of Joe. Now, let's talk about 249 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: something that affects a lot of men, but doesn't get 250 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 1: talked about enough as well too, And that's prostate cancer. 251 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: It's the second most common cancer in American men, with 252 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: about one in eight being diagnosed in their lifetime. In 253 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five alone, over three hundred and thirteen thousand 254 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: new cases are expected in the US, and it's the 255 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: second leading cause of cancer death in men. Most cases 256 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 1: are found in men over sixty five, but early detection 257 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 1: can make a huge difference. So what should men know 258 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: about prostate cancer, especially as they get older. What are 259 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: the symptoms you can tell us about? 260 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 4: Great question. Let's start with symptoms. At the early stages. 261 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 4: You'll have urinary symptoms, okay, that is difficulty is starting 262 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 4: to pee, and difficulty stopping. When you stop, you'll still 263 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 4: dribble a little bit. You know, things like that which 264 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 4: are starting to change. You didn't have that, and now 265 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 4: you're starting to develop those symptoms, and then needing to 266 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 4: pee way more often, like feeling like you need to 267 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 4: pee a lot, peeing a lot, especially through the night, 268 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 4: waking up multiple times to p and then if you 269 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 4: see any blood in the urine or in the semuen, 270 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 4: then you know those are all tell tale signs. But 271 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 4: here's the thing. Those symptoms are not unique to prostate cancer. 272 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 4: That just could be an enlarged prostate like benign prosthetic 273 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 4: hypertrophy which is BPH can mimic they can produce exactly 274 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 4: same symptoms, right. But here's why I want you to 275 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 4: pay attention. If you have those symptoms, and in addition, 276 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 4: you have persistent bone pain, specifically your hips or your 277 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 4: lower back, If you feel extremely tired all of a sudden, 278 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 4: you know, over the last six months, you feel like, 279 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 4: oh my god, I don't know what's going on. If 280 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 4: you've lost significant weight without crying, in addition to the 281 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 4: urinary symptoms, those are signs that you really need to 282 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 4: go see your doctor and get this checked out because 283 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 4: those could be signs of prostetic cancer. 284 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 1: Doctor, what's the difference between early stage and metastatic prostate cancer? 285 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 4: Early stage is often defined as the cancer staying within 286 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 4: the prostate. Many times it happens later in life and 287 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 4: it's not as aggressive, right because it's slow growing and 288 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 4: it often stays in the prostate itself. But there is 289 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 4: a variant. There is one type. We don't know why yet, 290 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 4: but there are certain people who develop a very aggressive 291 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 4: form of prostate cancer, even in later life when it 292 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 4: starts spreading very quickly outside the so metastatic prostate cancer 293 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 4: means the bone. It's it has spread usually to the bones. 294 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 4: And that's why I was saying. You know, if you're 295 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 4: pain in your hips, if you're paining your lower back, 296 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 4: persistent pain with urinary symptoms, you want to be very 297 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 4: careful and see you know that's it has spread those areas. 298 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 4: It can also spread to the to the lower part 299 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 4: of the belly, to the abdomen, palvis area, and and 300 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 4: can cause persistent pain. 301 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 3: So that's the difference. 302 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 2: Now you talked about the early stage of of prostate 303 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 2: cancer and understanding it. What is ps M A PET scans? 304 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 2: What are those and why are they so important? 305 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 4: Great question? So this is something most you know, it's 306 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 4: fairly new. So that's a really good question. So ps 307 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 4: M a PET scan is if it's a it's a 308 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 4: very it's a fancy scan. It's done not to screen, Okay, 309 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 4: So it's usually done in early stages when you've been 310 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 4: diagnosed with state cancer. The whole thing takes about two hours. 311 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,959 Speaker 4: But the scan, you know, what happens is you go 312 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 4: see them, they put an IV in you and then 313 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 4: they inject this radioactive material and then they give it 314 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 4: about thirty minutes. And the idea behind it is things 315 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 4: like prostate cancer have unique markers. Okay, so think about 316 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 4: like a zip code. If you have that zip code, 317 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 4: then you know that's unique to certain area. Right, So 318 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 4: prostate cancer has a unique marker on it, and they 319 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:34,399 Speaker 4: can identify by injecting this radioactive material that goes to 320 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 4: those specific zip codes. So from there they can see 321 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 4: you has your prostate cancer spread. Additionally, if you've had 322 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 4: cancer before and you've been treated, it's a good way 323 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 4: to screen you to see if. 324 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 3: It's coming back, is it spread? Is it coming back? 325 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 4: So that's that's a fairly new scan, very very very effective. 326 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 4: If you add it with a CT scan, it's it's 327 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 4: very very good be done early stage or prostate cancer. 328 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:06,719 Speaker 2: M How can guys start the conversation with their I mean, 329 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 2: I know, I did, I went and I'm I'm forty 330 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 2: seven and I got an exam. I did it.

Number two, 342 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,439 Speaker 4: if it's really difficult, just start with that conversation. Just 343 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 4: start by saying, Doc, I'm worried about something and leave 344 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 4: it there. And most doctors will look at you and open, 345 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 4: you know, create a space for you to say, oh, 346 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 4: what's going on, you know, and have and take you 347 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 4: down the conversation where we can ask you questions and 348 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 4: then you can be more open about it. 349 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 3: Right. 350 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,239 Speaker 4: And I think specifically with prostate cancer, the days of 351 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,679 Speaker 4: you know, you know, finger up the butt, feeling you know, 352 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,679 Speaker 4: time for you know, glove finger that those those days 353 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 4: are few and far between because we can do blood 354 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 4: tests now, right, run your PSA and check you for symptoms. 355 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 4: And you know, if you don't want to get that done, 356 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 4: you can get a scan. There are there are there 357 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 4: are ultrasound scans, there are cat scans. There's so many 358 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 4: other scans that you can do to get a diagnosis of, 359 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 4: you know, an enlarged prostate or prostate cancer. So the 360 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 4: important thing is when you have these symptoms, have the 361 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 4: conversation and just start there and just say, Doc, I 362 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,640 Speaker 4: got something on my mind. Just start there, and most doctors, 363 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 4: we are trained, we know, we know how to take 364 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 4: you from there. 365 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 2: Doc, What does personalized treatment mean? In the context of 366 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 2: prostate cancer? 367 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 4: Things have changed significantly in terms of diagnosis, in terms 368 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 4: of treatment, and so survival rates have gone out right. 369 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 4: What we can do now is we can now identify 370 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,479 Speaker 4: the type of cancer you have and how it's going 371 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 4: to respond to treatment based on you, your age, your lifestyle, 372 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,679 Speaker 4: your genetics, and then based on the cancer itself. We 373 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 4: can actually study the cancer and see, you know, hey, 374 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 4: this type of cancer is going to respond to hormone treatment, 375 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 4: this type is not. This type is likely to respond 376 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 4: to immunotherapy, this one is not. And so now we 377 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:45,360 Speaker 4: can we can get very very personalized treatment specifically for you. 378 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 4: Because you know, what we know now is not all 379 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 4: can all prostate cancer behave exactly the same prostate cancer 380 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 4: in you can behave very differently to someone to prostate 381 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 4: cancer in someone else. So if we can understand that, 382 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 4: and we now have the means of studying that we 383 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 4: can now create treatment plans specifically for you. That's personalized 384 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 4: treatment right there. 385 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 1: So, Doc, what's the biggest myth or misconception you hear 386 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 1: from men about their health? 387 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 4: The most common one I get is when people say, 388 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,959 Speaker 4: you know, if nothing hurts, I must be healthy. That 389 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,679 Speaker 4: is the biggest misconception out there right now, you know, 390 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 4: And the reason is so many of the common conditions 391 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 4: the ones I mentioned right. You asked me a great question. 392 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 4: Why the common conditions after the age of fifty, right, 393 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 4: heart disease, Alzheimer's, vision changes, cancers. They often have no symptoms. 394 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 4: They are often building up in you without any symptoms. 395 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 4: So waiting till it hurts or waiting till you have 396 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 4: symptoms is late. So just because you don't have symptoms 397 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 4: doesn't mean you're healthy. Right, you want to go get 398 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 4: that checked. It's it's like saying, you know, just because 399 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 4: my car is running doesn't mean there's nothing wrong. You 400 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 4: still go get it serviced. 401 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 3: Right. 402 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 4: It's exactly the same thing. So, you know, just no 403 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 4: symptoms doesn't mean, you're healthy. That's the that's a takeaway home, 404 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 4: takeaway point. 405 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: Dark a lot of great information thus far. If you 406 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 1: could give one piece of advice to every guy listening 407 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:30,400 Speaker 1: right now, what would it. 408 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:35,360 Speaker 4: Be, Oh, putting me on the spot, dude. 409 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 2: I said, there's a lot of spots in this conversation, 410 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 2: dot based on based on the phone call you got 411 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 2: from while you were working on the PGA tour late 412 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 2: at night. 413 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: Uh, you know, I think I think that's an easy 414 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: one to put you on the spot. 415 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 4: I think in this day and age, when you get 416 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 4: blood test done, or your blood pressure done, or all 417 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 4: of this done, and certainly this is applicable to you 418 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 4: know what I what I what I bring from the 419 00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 4: professional athlete world is normal isn't optimal. You want to 420 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 4: be optimized. Being normal this day and age is a 421 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:11,640 Speaker 4: very low benchmark. So get the goal to be optimized, 422 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 4: get the goal to stay dangerous. 423 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 2: Doc, you talk about normal, and these conversations aren't normal 424 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,959 Speaker 2: for certain and that's why we are here having it 425 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 2: with you right now.

They love to compare. They love to compete. 435 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 4: We as humans generally are like that, right, whether it's 436 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 4: body fat percentage, whether it's testasterone levels, anything like that. 437 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 4: And if you look at even nowadays with wearable data, right, 438 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 4: they love telling someone, Hey, I've got a sleep crown, 439 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 4: you know, I got you know, my sleep score was this, 440 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 4: you know.
