Well PNI is still being debated and my understanding of its significance is as a predictor of more advanced disease and adverse features (EPE, SVI, high Gleason etc) at biopsy.

As Blackball has had an RRP and has clear margins he knows he no longer has PNI as it's in the bin. This paper Sums up some of the thinking

The 'well' was to me I think, Andy, to indicate a continuing discussion about positive and negative margins. No-one set out to offend you; we are just the two members that responded in a hope that we could reassure you.

Cancer diagnosis and the never ending need to monitor PSA alongside the constant worry about whether there will be a recurrence can make anyone a bit twitchy. I am certain no-one here meant to be rude to you.

I have made an exception for you. I usually stick to a rule of using the avatar name that someone has chosen - the forum is now easily searchable by non-members via Google and most of us don't want our real name to be used in posts for fear of accidentally being identified by family members/ colleagues / curious or vexatious observers.

PS I think that you are doing francij a disservice - all I see is a member that was trying to help you.

I don't engage with private messages; I don't like that PCUK added this facility so francij knows that there is no point sending me one :-/

Hopefully, other members will be along to give you their perspective on your situation.
