Comments on: Dear Dr. Epinosa, I am writing on behalf of my father. He was diagnosed with PC in November of 2009, he had RP in December 2009, post op path report was Gleason 7, T3A. His 5 week PSA came back at .55. The doctor wants to start him on hormone therapy and two months IMRT. How likely is it that his cancer is confined to the prostate bed? what are his chances for a cure? Was it too early to check psa? Sorry for the many questios, I just got so excited that there is someone who can finally answer all my questions. Lynne
