In all my research I have not seen anything about the Decipher Test. Thanks for the information.

You're welcome. When I was first going through testing back in January 2023, I was not a member of MCC. I also knew little about prostate cancer and treatments. I did though have an excellent PCP who monitored PSA and referrals to urologist.
There is so much to learn and understanding of prostate cancer it can be overwhelming. The PSMA test is also very useful as will provide more information if cancer has spread outside your prostate. The test I had beyond biopsies was Decipher, bone scan, PSMA.
If you are only 1 hour from John Hopkins, if me, I would definitely go there. You would be getting experienced and knowledgeable medical experts, and you could not do much better.
Good luck on your journey.
