When were you first diagnosed?
What was your Gleason score?

What was your initial treatment; surgery or radiation?

Have you had a PET – PSMA scan and if so, what does that show?

I’m on my second go around with prostate cancer. Stage three with lymph node involvement this time. I was given a stage 4 diagnosis in December with a little hope for a cure. I pivoted and found a better healthcare provider with a better strategy. Got re-staged as stage three and with the treatment plan I am on. I may die with the disease, but I probably shouldn’t die from it. I’ll take that as a win.

Never give up. We are here for you. Talk to us.
