This is probably the size of the tumor. However, your doctor should have gone over everything (even if it meant drawing a diagram) and calming you both down over this. If caught early prostate cancer is curable. Please sit down with your husband and make a list of all questions you have for the Specialist and he/she will be happy to provide you with the answer. Write down those answers so you can refer back to them. A great many men will have Prostate Cancer in their life and that's why they should have a complete physical and their prostate checked. If you husband has been keeping up with his physical exams (even 2 years apart) the chances that the specialist has caught the cancer early is good.
