If you decide to do a prostatectomy, then you could move forward, though I would ask for a PSMA pet test or an MRI. The MRI can give you information on how extensive the tumors are, Whether there is noticeable spread outside the prostate as can the PSMA pet.

With the right MRI you can get a Gleason score estimate not with a pet test.
