I understand you had prostate cancer, I did as well. I chose the surgical removal of the prostate and have had no further complications. Mine was an overly aggressive type much like yours but they got it in time before anything spread. Did you not have regular check ups that would have shown increased PSA levels?
Like a male testosterone driven idiot, I didn’t seek treatment until it was stage 4. They won’t remove the prostate now. It’s too late for that. We are working on the (prostate) cancer that has worked itself to my bones.
I had my prostate gland removed two months ago today. The doctors said everything went well.
What makes my case extremely unusual is before and after biopsies detected no cancer cells in the prostate gland but in the seminal vesicle there was aggressive growth cancer cells (Gleason score 8). Three specialists told me before the surgery this was not possible and the before biopsy just missed the cancer cells. Now one of the specialists is going to write a paper on it.
I will have a PSA test in a month to confirm cancer cells were removed. The lymph nodes were negative around the prostate gland.
