I haven't decided on any treatment yet, mainly because I haven't been offered any yet. As my PSA just jumped up to 6.4, I suspect he may offer something now, but I never know what this guy is going to say and he's very difficult to even talk to. I have requested a 2nd opinion, but that may take 4 - 6 months in Canada (if they even allow it).

I'm not sure where you live in Canada . Near Toronto you will not wait for months for a 2nd opinion .
Regarding an MRI after all this time I would go to Buffalo , ProScar or Windsong in Williamsville -- $ 536 USD wait time a few days or 2 weeks .
Any Urologist worth his salt would request a CURRENT MRI to see what has changed plus use this recent MRI for a MRI Fusion Biopsy .
You may also consider a Liquid Biopsy ( Biomarker Test ) to determine the aggressiveness of your cancer .
