Hello, active surveillance is what you should continue with now. A Gleason score of 6 does not include cancer. You need a Gleason score of at least 7. Note, there is another type of rating system besides Gleason. It doesn’t cause this common confusion error. Keep monitoring and good luck!

Jerry, thank you for your response. It is indeed confusing. There seems to be a big debate in the Urology community. My doctor says it’s cancer, but likely not aggressive enough to treat.
