Hello, 77 year old male with MRI scan result of PIRAD 5, stage 3 B. Recently had biopsies and awaiting results. My question is at the appointment to discuss the results and treatment options, do I have to decide at the time or do I get a follow up appointment to discuss and confirm
Hello Annea66
As you said in your previous thread, your husband has MS so once all the test results are in I think it wise for your husband's MS consultant to chat with his oncologist to agree a treatment plan. As Rob (Sandberg ) said above you don't have to accept the MDT meeting's recommendation.
To help you with this you need the full diagnosis from the biopsy (Gleason Score - TNM Score and Latest PSA). We also have a list of questions you can use to put a list together to ask at the meeting - link here:
Questions to ask your healthcare team.
I hope the above helps.
Best wishes - Brian.
