Did you choose active surveillance? Why was it a good choice?

Personally I would have no problem waiting if PSA and decipher is low and nothing visible on MRI (assuming latest machine). Quarterly psa tests and a yearly MRI is probably what I would do and in fact did do something similar.
Your PET scan is also clear, right? There are a lot of treatment choices out there and the longer you can wait, the more there will be.

Yes my pet scan psma PET scan radiologist who read it didn't see anything my oncologist said he saw a slightly small area the the radiologist might have missed. He showed it to me it was very small . But the radiologist that read the scan said it was negative nothing found. My oncologist I saw him yesterday first visit but he's really has 30 years with strictly prostate cancer said he wasn't to concerned about it that as long as I did some kind of treatment later. We talked about CyberKnife and brachytherapy At the end of the year.
