good evening men. i have a group question here. i,m 57 years old and i feel that is kind of young to have prostate cancer. so my question for the men is what is the age of some of you?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Prostate Cancer Support Group.

@jeremy904, I'm glad that that cancer was caught so early. I bet neither you nor your doctor were expected the biopsy to come back positive at your age. What treatment has been recommended?

Hi @colleenyoung ,

First off - thank you for the wonderful job you do moderating this board.

Everything is going slowly at this point due to my urologist being hard to contact and hard to get my records from for second opinion. I was recommended to get a RALP due to my age from the 10-minute consult I did with him based on my results. I'm currently working to get a second consult from a few places (BAMF virtually and Mayo locally) as well as sending my biopsy slides to Johns Hopkins for review.

I am open to their suggestions and am prepping mentally and physically for a RALP. I'll follow-up when I know more.
