Chevy, consider starting ADT. Ask Tollefson for script for orgovyx and sample, if he agrees on Tuesday . Call the venue where you had the biopsy and ask for expedited Decipher testing. Tollefson's expertise is prostate surgery. You might look at his videos if you are idle on Sunday.
I'd want radiation. I'd want hypofractionated 5 treatment MRI guided treatment. When I checked last summer, none of the Mayos had the equipment. Consider video appointment because you can get them sooner and don't waste time traveling around. Often you can grab an earlier appointment with someone's cancellation.
ADT has the potential to stop the growth of the tumor and reduce its size. My understanding is that both surgeons and radiologists prefer that prostate patients take it for two months prior to treatment. But Tollefson will have a plan.
I would definitely want to see a radiologist before deciding
Sorry this happened to you. Safe trip. Bless your journey.
