Biopsy confirms prostate cancer in 12 out of 12 cores

I sought local treatment but transferred my care to Mayo Clinic Rochester MN. It is a 10 hour drive which I now do quarterly. In three years, I have made the trip 17 times. They are phenomenal and my life is worth the trip. I am now clear…but was stage 4, Gleason 10. The trip also gave me precious time with my wife. Mayo was incredibly with scheduling so I could get all my testing and scans done on Thursdays and have treatments/doc visits Fridays so I could return Saturday and miss the least work.
