good evening men. i have a group question here. i,m 57 years old and i feel that is kind of young to have prostate cancer. so my question for the men is what is the age of some of you?

79 Years old prostate cancer fighter stage 3 & Gleason 9, first psa after radiation 0.38. Dr. Wants me to start abiraterone & prednisone treatment. Isn’t this a last ditch effort treatment with way too many effects? Undecided
