@DiamondJoe No....it s not my polll. But you are right that is nonsenseSo "0 points" is still "mildly symptomatic"?
Are they trying to sell you something, OP?
Score 22. 66 years old. In very early stage 1 Prostate cancer. Found out I had PC in Jan 2018. Had another biopsy in Feb 2020 still in very early stage 1. Doing the wait-and-watch.
I was detected early they did the robotic surgery but now suffer from erectile dysfunction and shrinkageMen, please remember Prostate issues can develop as early as 45 years of age, do not ignore. If your Physician says your Prostate has enlarged then you need to get a Urologist and keep an eye on it. Once your score gets 8 -19 moderately symptomatic. Prostate issues are a serious condition and need to be treated at early stages. At early stages they can be treated with less invasive procedures than when it gets to the upper half of that spectrum.
I can really take the test above and it be a fair reading as my Physician has me on Flowmax a medication to help with urine flow.

Really bad try pump.and pills mine went back to looking like a kidsI even notice differences from the archaic biopsy they did on me in January 2020. I can't hold my erections as long as before the procedure. I use to hold my erections sometimes over 1.5 hours and for my advanced age I was really happy with it. The erections were much more erect than now. I use to get morning wood 2 to 4 times a week but the 1 or so I get now is week. This has pissed me off so much I decided to stop seeing the Urologist and find another Urologist, which i will decide on when the weather turns cooler here. I am thinking of even finding one in a city that has a few Urologists that use more modern procedures for prostate issues. I got some time yet. I did not even go back to that Urologist for the results of the biopsy he did in January 2020. I called and canceled the appointment and never made another appointment.
What kind of procedure what done with the robotic surgery? The Physician don't offer any medication to help with the erectile dysfunction? How bad is the erectile dysfunction?

Yes how true before this happened I use to.put a hot compress on my penis because I was having pain it helped also after my surgery I would get semi hard and just shot water I haven't been able to get an erection and I don't like showing my penis but I have on occasion only to be laughed atSorry to hear!! I am similar to what I was before as far as size which is nothing more than average.
My Primary Care Physician tried to talk me out of the whole thing as I was only having the issue with going to take a urine break every 2 - 3 hours 24-7. She had prescribed flowmax generic to get it to that level as it was more often. I just wanted to get myself off the flowmax generic and decided to see the Urologist. I screwed myself I guess we are sometimes our own worst enemy.

After medical school urology is a very very competitive field, why? Is it because everyone wants to look at old mans gizmos or stick a finger in a middle aged butt
no it’s hard to get into cause ...it’s a money maker
Talk to a roofer....they will recommend a new roof
mechanic....new breaks and new alternator
shoe salesman ...he tell you how your worn heals are killing your posture
Doctors are people ... not saints, and urologist recommend biopsy’s , Surgeries , and follow up appointments
