Thank you for posting your update.

I wondered a couple of things as you considered your options;
was removal ruled out?
what your urologists recommendation was?
was cribriform detected?

I am in the same boat with (3+4), 63, and have pni and cribriform. No health issues. I am weighing treatments and meet with my urology oncologists in mid-August.
Thanks.
Jon

Jon: I am 66 and was 4+3 with cribriform and PNI. I did Tulsa Pro at Mayo Rochester last July. 1 year out and no sign of cancer. Very easy treatment for me and zero side effects.

@jonathanack
I did not want to take the chance of some of the side effects with having my prostate removed.

My Urologist gave me two choices either prostate removal or radiation. I did a lot of research on my own as he was not great on talking about the latest and greatest in Radiation or for that matter any new technologies.

I did not have cribriform.

Private message me and I will go into mote details, if you like.
