In today's world, if there was any question about his PSA or what we call PSA velocity or the rise of that blood test, there would be MRI all over him. There would be PET scans. There would be It's very hard to imagine that the president of the United States will go on for years without the kind of attention that normal patients will get in our practice. And this was missed.

So I have a very difficult time to believe that whether or not they made the wrong decision because of what the politics was. That certainly is a good question that you're bringing up.

Well, you know, we know that he has not had surgery because if the information they're telling us that it was just last week that they examined him and they felt a nodule, that means that the prostate is still there and nobody has removed it. And so if he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer while he was a president...

they could have treated him with this hormonal treatment given the fact that he had metastases, but he would be, even though we didn't see a lot of him on TV and he was not present for a long period of time, but you would see him at times he would break into sweat and he would have like exactly like menopausal symptoms that women go through, that he would get hot flashes, that he would be very tired and he would have a lot of symptoms and side effects of this hormonal treatment.

So, um, The story doesn't make sense. I think that certainly he's had this cancer for close to a decade or so. Prostate cancer, Gleason 9, it grows rapidly, but it takes years for it to metastasize. And I don't see too many patients like this not in today's world with the kind of screening, the MRIs and exams that we have. And if that's truly what happened, it's a major, major malpractice.

Megan, this is not about the last year or two years ago. When you talk about such a big cancer like this, this has been cooking for many years. And someone like him, he's had at least 30 to 40 years of PSA history. Someone who is in politics like this, senators, congressmen, politicians, they have a lot of attention.
