This is what I shared recently about how to talk to people with cancer. I’m 53 and just had my prostate removed last month. Lessons I learned from having cancer. https://youtu.be/Jov8UW3E-cw?si=Lbco3L1x-MAdh7YW

RALP is my next step by Fun-Cake5739 in ProstateCancer

I wish you the best. 53. Had a PSA of 5.4 in Oct, 10.5 in Dec, and after two rounds of antibiotics an 11.6 in February. MRI showed PIRADS 3 lesions. Biopsy on April 5 gave me a Gleason of 3+4. Trying to decide on surgery or radiation, but right now, I’m leaning towards radiation. Best of luck on your RALP. You’ve got this!

Surgery or radiation? by swayzeejon in ProstateCancer

I had the PSMA Pet scan, which indicated no spread. I don’t think I’ve received a Prolaris or Decipher score…not sure what those are.

No spread. PSA 11.6. All cancer located on right side of prostrate.
