My Gleason 3 + 3 Prostate Cancer

In 2011, I was diagnosed with Gleason 3 + 3 prostate cancer. In June 2011, I had brachytherapy and within two years my PSA dropped to 0.1 from pre-treatment value of 3.4.

Then between 2015 and 2016, my PSA rose to 1.5 by July 2016. A second biopsy detected as extra-prostatic cancerous mass. I had 6 months ADT and cyberknife and my PSA dropped to undetectable by April 2017 and stayed there until January 2018. Then it started rising rapidly: April 0.2, July 0.9, and August 1.3.

Both a bone scan and a CT turned out to be negative.

It appears that my cancer has become metastatic.

Sorry to hear. It’s quite shooking esp with a G6 and treatment at an early stage ( based on PSA) - you would have been a good candidate for AS. Did they give you a Gleason score from the second EP biopsy. Wish you all the best and stay with us here, you will hear from more knowledgeable folks.
