Gleason scores already designate 5 different types/categories of PaC, and this score strongly influences what type of barbaric treatment one will receive.

I hope their findings help discovery of humane immunotherapy’s.

I was just diagnosed with 7/7.5 Gleason score prostate cancer (adenocarcinoma).

The barbarians are cutting it out in 4 weeks.

A life of pissing my pants beats dying before retirement.

I understand and agree. I was Gleason 7: 4+3 intermediate aggressive. Caught it very early, no spread, so RALP was performed 5 months ago. Now I’m deep in the throws of pelvic floor PT hoping to gain some semblance of control again.

Hopefully your surgeon has performed (unlike mine) more than 1000 RALPs - the incontinence outcomes improve greatly when their experience is that high.

Best of luck to you. DM me at gmail if you need/want to talk about your upcoming RALP.

There's a very good chance, 90% or higher, if you're under 70, not obese, and in general good health, that you will have no issues with impotence or incontinence after reovery from surgery.

This is really the best option for healthy fit people under 70.

My father was diagnosed with a Gleason score of 10 this year.

When it’s this bad, ironically some barbaric options are off the table.
