Newly diagnosed with prostate cancer and still gathering information
Prostate Cancer | Last Active: Apr 22 2:46pm | Replies (115)Comment receiving replies
Are you on ADT? With a Gleason nine there is a chance of this coming back aggressively. Are you still working with a urologist Or have you moved on to an oncologist?
As I’ve mentioned before, some people I’ve known with a Gleason nine are still around 30 years later.
I wish you the best of luck in the future.

Am not on anything. My urologist believes with my PSA being undetectable, that no other treatment is needed at this time. I have also consulted with my new regular doctor, who also has expertise in prostate care, and he agrees. It has been a year and a half so far. I’d be lying if I told you I don’t worry about this from time to time. But so far doing fine. Best to you as well.
