Gleason 3+3; 1 in 8 cylinders/biopsy; PSA: 5.0

[Guest guest]

I have read a few of the posts and to all this forum provides great decision

points based on each specific case.

My biopsy came back recently with 1 in 8 problematic...Gleason score of 3+3. The

DRE and ultrasound used during the biopsy resulted in normal size. Current PSA

is 5.0. The PSA has just about doubled in the past 12 years...now at age 65.

The issue is I am in Spain...former US Army (ret) and used the Spanish health

care system..which works very well except for more intense issues like prostate

cancer and the options thereof. I plan to " go into the mil medical system "

after the 1st of the year to reinforce the medical information obtained after

the recent biopsy.

I used as the header key medical information in the hopes there are others with

very similar conditions; and as such, we could compare both the questions and

the possible answers...because, it seems every case is different.

Good luck to all you guys out there who are enduring..
