@jeffmarc Thanks Jeff, your name sounds Italian, I am also, half on my dad's side.
Right, I got the results and all of the cores showed a 6 Gleason score, so I don't know where he got the 7? I just wonder if the procedure of biopsy stimulates more cancer cell growth and spread?

I’m half Swiss Italian, Grandfather came over from Switzerland, but the Italian side and he married an Italian woman. My mother’s side is German English French. That side came to California in a covered Wagon.
The biopsy procedure does not really produce more cancer. It’s been studied pretty heavily and determined that it is not an issue.
