Thank you, @heavyphil, and all of you guys. You are being really helpful.

Today, I've delayed the surgery for the time being. They will pay me back. I'm worried that this delay might worsen things if I eventually end up taking the surgery route, but I think I need to compile all the relevant information to make the most informed decision, such as a genomic test. I would also like to know my father's Gleason at the time of the procedure when he underwent open surgery in 2007. I believe those are key pieces of data I should know before I make the most solid decision. It may end up being the same decision, but at least, if something goes wrong, I will know I did my homework.

I would also like to gather as many of my surgeon's stats and reputation indicators as possible, given that his skill is so important in the outcome. I think @tuckerp suggested that Mayo helped him gather information about the surgeon who operated on him (only after surgery)? I would love to know that about the surgeon of my choice. I've tried, believe me, but it's no easy task. At least, here in Spain. @tuckerp, do you know if Mayo provides such information from surgeons abroad?

Also, @heavyphil, the doctor who was going to operate on me said he was prone to discard focal therapy, given the fact that two cores out of the lesion came back positive, which suggests a multifocal tumor.

Thank you, guys. I hope I didn't f*** it up by canceling next week's surgery.
