Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, his office said Sunday.
Biden was seen by doctors last week after urinary symptoms and a prostate nodule were found. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer on Friday, with the cancer cells having spread to the bone.
"While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management," his office said. "The President and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians."
Prostate cancers are given a score called a Gleason score that measures, on a scale of 1 to 10, how the cancerous cells look compared with normal cells. Biden’s office said his score was 9, suggesting his cancer is among the most aggressive.

That's what I was thinking. I had a slightly elevated Gleeson detected in Spring 2021. Then a few months later they double checked and decided it would be best to get Proton Ray treatments. But first they ran some tests to see if it entered my bones. Those test indicated negative. Then starting in March 2022 I began my 28 treatments for the prostate cancer. Those treatments concluded in May and my Gleeson levels have remained low ever since with no sign of prostate cancer.
What AMAZES me is Biden had the BEST medical treatment of almost anyone in the world yet the very TREATABLE (if caught early) prostate cancer was allow to continue until it entered his bones. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE????
So WHY didn't they give him a PSA test? They gave me one when my Gleeson elevated just a bit.
Thank You!
He announced his cancer in 2022 . Evil Pres. Jill is desperate
Stop that Book Release and Trumps autopen investigation .
Pres Jill will use that old senile fool to keep her cash and stay out of prison .
Well, he always was a bone head
Oil in the air? In addition to fumes of sulfur?
My dad my Dad made it less than two months. His bone scan lit up like a christmas tree. Psa over 200. He quit getting his annual checkups when he retired. Thought he just was getting old and had bph.
I check every year. Have to remind the doc to order it on labs just about every year.
His brother let it slip two years ago.
Juneteenth
Or even September.
Before it’s too late.
Yep.
Well, with the current administration in control, I’m fairly confident that the monthly retirement salary to JRB will be discontinued at the proper time and not years later.
Great! My PSA was about 7. Had ADT and proton radiation therapy. In March, my PSA was 0.03.
How long were you on ADT, and what was the medication? I took orgyvyx (sp?) for about a year.
PSA over 200 is high,but not that high. How old wad he?
I can’t say anything nice about cancer and I can’t say anything nice about Joe Biden...Oh well.
Send him to Afghanistan and leave him behind
I was diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer with 8 bone mets I’m October 2014. I’ve responded so well to a ¾ regular dosage of Xtandi, my oncologist at MD Anderson is very confident my cancer will never progress.
So you can’t predict Biden’s future time of death. He could be around for a number of years; and with his dementia, maybe Jill will just decline treatment for him. That would not be a bad decision.
Of you are relatively young surgery is often the best option IF you have a great surgeon.
They’ll probably start a GoEmbalmMe page.....
