@dhasper The doctor was away when results came in but called from Europe. He said that we will do the PSA 7/20, but from his point of view, historically, he feels positive feels the margin is very limited and that frozen samples sent out during surgery were clear and all 20 lymph nodes etc. clear, but we have to see what test brings. Just waiting and hoping at this point. I understand it will always be this way. I have been down this road before unfortunately, my daughter was diagnosed at 24 years with melanoma, which spread to her lymph node. She was also cared for at Sloan and because of her age we agreed to do watch and wait, Brain scans all kinds of test for 7 years every couple of months. Just reached the point tests once a year. Thankfully she has been cancer free. We can only hope and pray....
