Thanks for the information. I am very nervous about this. I am stage two and the Dr said it was moderately aggressive. I don't really have a lot of symptoms. My psa went from 4.6 three years ago and went unchecked until this May where it was 13.48. Two weeks later it was over 18. I am only 59 and have 8 year old twins. Like I said I have very little symptoms and I kind of may be in denial and shouldn't go through with the surgery Aug 7th. I have been looking at different boxer briefs. I prefer commando but those days will soon be gone.

@djkurr at your age I wouldn’t recommend that you get a second and even third opinion. I would go to a top flight medical team for sure. I would put that off as long as possible with them watching it. I was about 10 years older than you when prostate cancer entered my life. Nothing has ever been 100% OK after that.
