Hello. Thank you for your response. I apologize you are going through this as well. I am not sure what his Gleason score is. It's still so early of diagnosis it's been test after test. He is in severe pain to where he can't even get out of the bed to walk. They are only giving him 5mg of oxy and refuse to give him a higher dose. I am not happy with the care they have given him. Nobody has treated it as it is important and have prolonged treatment. So much so we decided to go get a second opinion today. He has seen an oncologist, a hematologist, and so many other doctors. We were just told yesterday that it is stage 4 and it's incurable there is nothing they can do except treat to make him comfortable until it pretty much kills him. We refuse to take that as an answer which is why we are getting a second opinion. His PET scan did show it is in his lungs the did a biopsy in a lung procedure to verify for sure and it has indeed traveled. He is the best man I have ever known and I refuse to give up on him. He has taken care of me and fought for me my whole life and now it's time to do the same for him.
