Hi all, Very grateful for this community in a time like this. My father had a biopsy and has been diagnosed with prostate cancer. I'm in shock and it feels like a bad dream, compounded by all this covid19 restriction going on. None of it feels real. He's had a scan done and we have an appointment to find out the extent of it and whether/how far it's spread. I guess what I'm after is some kind of reality and options based on your experience. He's been diagnosed with a PSA 8.0, Gleason 4+5 = 9. It also mentions prostate adenocarcinoma and multifocal perineural invasion. Any insight would be appreciated, even if it's not the best. I just want to know what I could start looking/reading/researching to prepare us before the appointment and also the road ahead. Also, does anyone have any experience with hemp oils? Do they help with treatment? Thanks in advance, All the very best, Petar ... View more
