Lots of prostate positive cases survive for more than 10 years plus,
and die with the cancer, not because of it.

Thanks Sel - I do plan on living well beyond the 10 years (no matter how boring life can get at times) Unless something else decides differently that is not in my control.

I certainly won't let it steer my life moving forward. I'm keeping controls on that.

Dearborn,

My thoughts are with you and stay the course! Having been there and doing that with very similar circumstances as yours.

Had a PSA of 15.9, biopsy results same as you Gleason 3-3-6 ,catheter installed from Feb to surgery on June 15th of this year to open prostate channel and allow urethra to be unimpeded. There were 12 core samples taken in the biopsy and 2 were positive, similar to your results, luckily the slow moving and appear to have not spread.

Had to have the surgery, to get rid of the catheter, but I coped those 4 months. As you are now, I am now on surveillance. Just had my 3 month, PSA 1.7, and will get the MRI scan another 6 months, and another surgical biopsy and go from there.

There are always people worse off than us and I keep that in mind every day.

My prayers and positive thoughts to you!



You are on the right course, and keep up the positive vibes!
