Don't think I could have received better news today. Pathology report read as follows:

Gleason score 3+3 = 6 comprising 5% of gland

Tumor present in left lobe only

Surgical margins are free of tumor

Also the catheter came out today and yes the removal was relatively painless. I do have questions regarding the aftermath after catheter removal but I'm going to start a seperate topic.

Thanks for all the well wishes and help.

good news for the post-surgery path report, and the easy catheter removal. Keep looking forward. It will most likely take a few days for the initial irritation of the urinary tract to ease, and some swelling to go down before you get any good idea of what condition your condition is in.
