Thanks Tall Allen. The dre was normal, in fact the dr said it was amazingly normal. This was my second biopsy, the first was all clear a year ago. This one they did after I had an MRI that showed two small suspicious areas to target, somewhere in the middle. The doctor is already recommending surgery (he's a surgeon), Dr Catalona in chicago, suposed to be top notch. The MRI didn't see anything outside or in surrounding tissue, I still have to do a bone and ct scan to confirm. The doctor's thinking is that its very small and with my age and good health, I should have it removed.

Are you thinking even though its small and mostly 3, with the 5 in there that likely won't be enough?

Thanks again for the info!
