Worse. they changed my Gleason score from 8 to 9 which resulted in increased cancer medication for a longer period of time. The cancer had spread locally to the seminal vehicles and was graded as aggressive and advanced Gleason score 9. It did not please me but I was glad that they caught it and are treating it. Two years ago my surgeon gave me a prognosis of 4-5 years and that still alarms me but I am hopeful. The research that I have done indicates a life time prognosis of 60 months from the cancer discovery and 41 months of event free survival. I am now 76.
