I wish you all the best and am praying for you and everyone here. I have not yet had my biopsy. Discovered a lesion, grade 5 from imaging. Doc says it indicates aggressive. Won't know until biopsy. I am in the same boat. I have found learning as much as possible helps me and this site also is comforting. The good news is that there is a very high probability of recovery. What is your age and family history? How often did you do a PSA? What if any symptoms did you have?

I also wish the best for you. My biopsy did confirm the cancer so will be back at Mayo next week for more testing, consultation and follow up. I’m 65, only history of metastatic prostate cancer was an uncle on mothers side (as far as I know). Did PSA every year at annual physical. Didn’t really recognize symptoms until diagnosed (just wrote them off to aging process). I hope everything goes well for you at your follow up with your doctors.
