Kyle13: Here was my description: Prostate, Index Lesion x 5 Left ant TZ mid, needle core biopsy:
Adenocarcinoma, GRADE GROUP 3, Gleason grade 4+3 (score 7) (estimated 70 % grade 4)
4 of 5 needle cores are positive
70 % tissue involvement.

All 12 of the other cores were negative.

I had 30% my prostate ablated. I started sex 1 week after and have had no issues. I told my doctor that I actually think it’s better than before, but I think it’s just that I’m so happy that things didn’t change.😉

Hey jcf, Glad you are doing well. A buddy of mine was just diagnosed Gleason 4+3 unfavorable; the tumor is very close to the rectum.
He’s consulted with RO’s and surgeons; he has consult next week at Sloan for some sort of focal therapy. I told him to look into TulsaPro since you and others seem pleased with your results.
He’s in NY and would have to travel to Mayo Jacksonville; any particular doctor he should arrange a consult with? The position of the tumor seems to be the wild card in all this. Many Thanks!
Phil
