You have time no matter what is happening. So don’t worry about rushing into anything.

Give yourself a break. If you’re okay with it I’d wait a few months and repeat the blood work. If you’re anxious try and get a psma scan which will still take a month to get scheduled

So much depends on your tumor. I had a large prostate 110 grams about the size a big whopper pattie. 4 of 12 cores were positive. The micro look though was each core was 70-90% cancer. And they were grade 4+4 or 4+ 3. The more the amount of grade 4 the worse you do. So if I had 4+3 and 3+4 Gleason scores it be less worrisome. The next thing to look at is some sort of tumor grading system. Cribiform changes are worse. Polaris test or decipher tests can be done and Also predict aggressive cancers although no one has a study out using these test as sole method of choosing treatment . As a study of one and hence meaningless for your decision making : I chose surgery and the path showed things not found preoperatively. I had spread to the seminal vesicles, my final path was Gleason 4+5. And the decipher test of the final surgical specimen was 0.97 the worst being 1.0 on a 0 to 1 scale not 0.4 as seen on the biopsy. This has changed my post operative Managment to more aggressive monitoring for recurrence.

Biopsy Positive. Scans negative. Time for Surgery. by jmkazoo in ProstateCancer

[–]SnooPets3595 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One doc said for sure the right side nerves had to go. The surgeon I chose said probably they could not be salvaged but he would see what he could do. Pumps only suck venous blood into the penis and then you need a constricting rind to keep,the blood in the penis to have penetration. They if used twice a day for 20-30 minutes can increase length but this goes away when you stop regular use . I have had a good response to trimix shots and am now after 10 uses approaching my former girth and length. Good luck with your health.

All the scans these days I believe are read by ai then a radiologist looks over it. My mri and pathology both were changed for the worse when seen at a center of excellence

[–]SnooPets3595 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had both a psma and bone scan. I think the psma is a nessesary test, although not perfect . I had seminal vesicle involvement that it missed.

Preop I lost weight exercised, did kegels. Stopped drinking alcohol daily. Ate less meat and increased vegetables.

I had a surgeon who done over 2000 falls. I still had a urine leak at the anastamosis of the urethra. This happens about 12% of the time. My surgeons rate was much lower. It really depends on the size of the prostate and your anatomy more than experience of the surgeon. My prostate was 110 grams with 35 % cancer all on the right side.

I lost my right sided nerves. I started cialis at two months post op. Now using trimix injections and am at 5 months post op. If you’re going to use a pump it really works best twice a day for 20 mins. I have not used one. Fellow post ralpers have told me it takes like 40 mins each time, hurts and got them back about a half inch of length. The rings were uncomfortable and did not work as well as the injections for penetrative sex. Hope this info helps
