Is 76 too old for prostate cancer surgery?

This is so crazy about PCa. Here you presented a case of PSA 1.2 with cancer, albeit only one of 12 cores.
My biopsy is done in Feb, 2024 and all 26 cores of them are benign. But my PSA is now up to 7.5. My next PSA and MRI are scheduled in August, 2024. I am almost sure of my destiny. I am bracing for impact.

I am sure someone with similar results can help rest your mind. I have a friend who has a 9.0 PSA and they are still monitoring his. I do not know what his biopsy scores were. If you had 26 samples seems it would have been hard to miss a spot. Your doing the right thing by continuing to watch it. As I have told others , I am not the one to take advice from. I over reacted to the word cancer and removed it. I thought about radiation but Dr told me it was not likely to be removed after with any nerve sparring.
