Biopsy confirmed 4+3=7 last Sept at 63 yo. Very successful RP on Jan 11 and life was looking up. Got hit with a sledge hammer 6 wks later when my psa was 10.4. PSMA Pet confirmed lymph mets in abdomen and chest stage 4. PSA a week ago was 12.3 and getting ready to start hormone therapy. It's scary but gotta stay strong and fight like heck. My faith gives me hope. God is good!

I was diagnosed with Gleason 3+3 in December 2021. Been on active surveillance. Just turned 71. Still on active surveillance, but will need an MRI Guided Prostate Biopsy in the next few months. It will be my 3rd Biopsy, but my 1st MRI guided one. Have had 2 MRI's and one was with 1.5 Tesla magnet resulting in a PI-RADS score of 2. Most recent MRI used a newer 3.0 Tesla magnet with a score of PI-RADS score of 3. I keep busy reading all I can on Prostate Cancer, diet, exercise, and newer treatments.
