52 years old BRCA 2 positive with a gleason 6 score

I don't know on the carrier status yet, I go in for genetic testing in a couple weeks. They suspect I am because I've had two cancers, one quite rare.

Chance of it coming back post-prostatectomy is low, I think it peaks at about 12% in 15 years but I haven't had my first PSA test since the surgery so I don't know where I'll be - but I know I have a host of treatment options open as a result of choosing RARP over radiation.
