Well, I did not listen to my Dr. I told him lets take it out. He did it. So at this point my benefit from the this group has been the expertise and ability to share where to go from here. I am really hoping that 5 years with a psa of < .01 that I am done with the cancer and all the treatments. So the subject of erections raised my interest. Yours and others on here are so much more knowledgeable than I would ever hope to be. Thanks.

Your reaction to the 6 is why doctors are wanting to change a Gleason 6 to a name other than cancer. It is likely your PSA would still be undetectable if you had done nothing. That’s the whole reason they have active surveillance, to let the 6’s wait until there is actually something to treat.

There is one guy in the Ancan.com active surveillance group that is as anxious as you were, he is still waiting, but panicked all the time, that something will need treatment.

You got your anxiety over immediately.
