Hi everyone,
My 69 year old father is preparing for his forst PSA January 8th after RP early October.
His stats are in my BIO.
Given the positive margins, EPE and possible Cribriform pattern, I would like to come into this appointment with as much information and as empowered as possible to be his best advocate.
Question for all, could we be doing anything prior to his appointment with the surgeon that will give us more information to make the best decisions? Perhaps Decipher testing or a second opinion pathology done at John Hopkins or another center?
Also if anyone is being treated in Miami and would recommend a RO or MO I would love to receive those recommendations. He is currently being treated at University of Miami.
*** Also, 2.5 weeks post RP his primary doctor ordered a PSA by mistake aling woth other tests that he had to have done, and it was at 0.2, but I guess 2.5 weeks was too soon anyways.
Thank you.
