And I am also slightly more confident because this was a 20 core biopsy this time. Still awaiting his follow up plan but I think this guy's on the ball......God willing!...
Thanks for the responses. I am very confident with my urologist and I am assuming he will be watching me very closely. I also understand that there may still be cancer lurking there. I think what I...
