You said “ My Gleason was a couple of 9's and a couple of 7's.”. It sounds like your tertiary 20% of 5’s was showing up in the biopsy as some 4+5 but mostly 3+4. Margins also had involvement, along with a lymph node and seminal vesicles.
As @farmanerd says, get a 2nd opinion.
With all the issues in this report you sure should get a second opinion, I can’t imagine a GU Oncologist would not recommend you be on ADT.
You don’t want this to come back in a short time you really need to be more proactive. Your life is really dependent on top notch medical care.
Perhaps getting a second opinion on your surgical pathology would be helpful to nail down your gleason score. 20% is a lot of tertiary pattern 5.
