Yea, hard to argue those fact but I thought I was clear - IDK if I heard correctly & am planning to clarify.

There are very different types of prostate cancer, really aggressive to slow growing.

The point is the gent's 72 w/a 7.x PSA prob isn't a reason to freak out, rather to weigh things out.

No, I won't freak out ... I'm dealing with what I need to do. I had no issues when I was diagnosed with melanoma and was very fortunate to have a positive outcome. It was caught and treated early, and I had good doctors, etc. My lesson learned is that I become even more aware of taking care of myself when outdoors, not to be afraid of the sun but to be smart about it to reduce skin cancer risk. Yeah, I also read what you said about PC being slow growing but can be aggressive, thanks.
