You are right I stated that incorrectly in my original message to you. If you could answer the questions below many of us could give you some guidance.

Did you get a PSMA pet scan showing you had three tumors, Or was that an MRI? Have they spread beyond the prostate. Did you have cribriform or intraductal?

Do you know your Gleason score, it’s really important.

PSMA: No
MRI: No
Beyond the prostate: I don't think it has.

Did you have cribriform or intraductal: No

I had a biopsy in April due to the rise of my number from 4.5 to 5.5.
That biopsy clearly showed 3 tumors one a Gleason 7
I'm not sure if it means anything however three different dr's with three different radiation treatment times: 40, 28 day and now a Cyberknife 5 wanted to do the radiation as soon as they saw me. But that might be the norm.
My PSA number went from a 7.5 to 8.5 in the last 6 to 8 months. And it's a x 2, seeing I'm on medication. My head is spinning.
