Most men die with it than from it. The vast majority of the time it isn't a big deal. Be sure to get a second opinion.

My dad had it at age 57 but it was so small it wasn't even worth treating. However the first doctor was getting ready to do all sorts of stuff to him in order to "treat" it. Fortunately my mom sought a second opinion first.

In the end he died 10 years later from an aneurysm having received zero treatment for the prostate cancer.

If you're mobile, I would highly recommend these guys... I have several friends and family members who have gone there with very successful results. They are one of the best cancer centers in the world and just minutes from TPA: https://moffitt.org/
