Hi Baz,I've had my biopsy,not painful,more uncomfortable,like sitting on a traffic cone.I had high PSA count and a 4 + 3(7) Gleason score.Try not to worry,i never knew how common prostate cancer is until I looked into it.The main treatments are surgery and hormone therapy followed by radiotherapy but other treatments are available.I thought,like you,that's it then,but most patients live years after treatment.My in law grandfather was diagnosed at 70,and live to be 93,so it's not as aggressive as other cancers.I'm going for hormone treatment followed by radiotherapy.With surgery its  about 4 days in hospital and you have to rest a few weeks when u come out.With radiotherapy its hormone treatment,then radiotherapy for 15 minutes,5 days a week,for 2 to 4 weeks. Try not to worry,you will be fine,stay positive.All the best,good luck.  John
