@clandeboye1 I also thought that t I shouldn't be "unfavorable intermediate." However, one of the other health professionals I asked indicated that notwithstanding GS 3+4 = 7, because 8 of 14 cores tested positive, it could be considered unfavorable. If only 6 of 14 were positive, certainly my GS 7 would be "favorable intermediate." Perhaps, even the professionals may look at my GS 3+4 differently? Yes, I read Dr. Walsh's book, the latest edition.

Vircet, your biopsy results should be the poster child for the Decipher Test.
Unfavorable is usually treated with ADT if you choose radiation, favorable not so much.
A friend of mine just had his treatment changed by his RO because his Decipher came in very low. Best
