Mostly due to my age, 58 and that surgery is off the table after radiation. Being low to mid on the aggressive scale and still being encapsulated I just wanted it out. One less thing to look over my shoulder at. Also being higher risk after 35 years as a firefighter played into the decision. Father was diagnosed at 65 and had radiation and lupron. He had lymph node involvement so they wouldn’t do surgery. This was 1998. He lived until 87 with no further issues.
