3+3 - others' experiences and questions I should ask doc?
Just received pathology report from MRI fusion biopsy with one 3+3 core and another adjacent core suspicious cells. 1.7 cm lesion, PSA 4, been having urinary issues for a couple of years, dad had diagnosis and RP at age 58. Have follow up with urology oncologist Monday. I know many docs recommend active surveillance for 3+3 but many get treated or find higher scores down the road.
Wondering about other experiences from 3+3 folk out there. What questions should I ask?
Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Prostate Cancer Support Group.
I am aware that mayo offers both MRI guided and ultrasound guided transparenial biopsies so you may have had either one. There should be notes in your patient portal. I think it will be under test results.
Good luck on your journey.
