A decipher test will tell how likely you are to have a reoccurrence after treatment.

A hereditary, genetic test tells you whether or not you have genetic issues that could make your cancer worse. I have BRCA 2 for example and it really is a problem because my DNA cannot correct errors, as a result that causes my prostate cancer to never go away.

As I mentioned before with your PSA rising, you need ADT and salvage radiation. I had it after a prostatectomy and I’m still around after 15 years.

Jeff,

Thank you for clarifying the decipher and genetic tests!

It is wonderful that you are still around after 15 years! I appreciate testimonials!

ADT and SRT for myself soon!

Thanks again! Continued health for all of us!

Mike
