Hello and weclome to HW, toolee
Be best to wait for the reuslts of that biopsy report before thinking so far. We would you rather not have to join us, but if the biopsy is positive for PC, then your treatment options will vary according to the degree and severity of your cancer.
Even though I am in SC, I was born at St. Johns Hospital in Tulsa, OK myself, many moons ago.
Please keep us well posted of your developments. We are here to help and support you.
