Good morning,

I am 77 and was diagnosed with Gleason 3+3 in July 2024. The lesion was 3mm dia and 18 samples taken, 9 from right side, no cancer, 9 from left side 2 samples Gleason 3+3.
I had an MRI last week which showed that the lesion is now 10mm, so I may have another biopsy.

Has anyone else experienced similar with Gleason 6?

cheers,

Hi Trapper673fdc5c , I can’t help directly, but me responding will bump you back to the top. I don’t know how many Gleason 6 we have ‘lurking’ on the site but hopefully you might get some replies. In my view, the cancer is growing and another biopsy won’t particularly give you any more info to make a decision, as action needs to be taken anyway (just my own logic). Is your PSA increasing?

Best wishes, David

Please remember that I am not medically trained and the above are my personal views.

Hi T

I was a Gleeson 6 with a lesion that went from 3mm to about 13mm over 4 years, then treatment.

U may want to consider treatment as can see that your size has gone up quite a bit in one year

Regards

Steve
