Hi
I’m 51 and found myself on the cancer pathway following a raised PSA over two tests.
PIRADS 5 on MRI and first biopsy had 2 areas deemed suspicious mutations across 12 samples, template biopsy then done under general with 39 samples & been to hospital today for the results.
i could see the green folder on the desk & was thinking please don’t give me this !
It was for me but have a Gleason score of 6 (3+3); T2 and going into active surveillance. It’s a strange old feeling to be told on one hand I’ve got cancer but it isn’t being treated ( for all the reasons I understand)
I’m sure in the coming days I’ll get my head around it….
