BRONZE

Neil Falcone and Beth live in Virginia, USA. He was 65 when he was diagnosed on September 12, 2008. His initial PSA was 3.2 ng/ml, his Gleason Score was 7 and he was staged T1c. He is undecided as to his choice of treartment . Here is his story.

I was given a biopsy on Sept. 12, 2008. I am 65.

I had 5 positive cores out of 16. I have considered Robotic surgery but I have just heard about cyber knife radiation. The biopsy showed an 84% chance of confined disease with a 12% extracapsular extension. Today is October 5, 2008. I an wondering if anyone here has considered or had this type of treatment.

I live in Northern Virginia and I heard that Georgetown University Hospital has this treatment. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Neil's e-mail address is: xr750v8@aol.com
