@fuzzy123, staging is a process. To stage a cancer, your cancer team gathers multiple sources of information during the diagnostic phase, like the digital exam, imaging studies and biopsy.
This information may help clarify:

Have you been told what stage you have in the meantime?

I was just told last week I have stage 4a metastatic prostate cancer. No cure hope, and a 50% chance of living 5 years. I’m already one year in so that means less than 4 years to live!! And I don’t count the last 6 mos to a year because that’s not living , that’s dieing !!!
