Thinking that it likely should be OK for *diagnostic scan* just for possible future reference. My 3rd Diagnostic will be later this year since Prostate Cancer diagnosis 10 years 11 months ago today. My Bilateral Orchiectomy, 10 years 11 months ago tomorrow has done a job on bone mass and density along with muscle loss, fat increase resulting in strength and endurance being shot to hell.

Do your best to remain STRONG and HEALTHY .
