Once they run all the tests, get a 2nd, 3rd, and even 4th opinion. Generally, you should have time for all of this. I had a PSA of 5.5, Gleason 6, and biopsy with one core positive (10% of the core) out of 12 core samples. Decipher score was LOW. With all of that, my Urologist pushed for a Radical Prostatectomy. After multiple other opinions, I went to Moffit Cancer Center in Tampa and ultimately was put on active surveillance. All the other Urologists ruled out Radical Prostatectomy, but differed on radiation, etc. It pays to go a cancer research center such as Mayo or another, and get several opinions.

Mayo in Scottsdale AZ is right up the road and I will go there for "more" opinions -- trust me.
