Thanks for replying Jeff! Gleason 3+4 =7 in 25% of one core. percentage of pattern 4 =6%. No other adverse features.
We were offered AS but chose surgery. Diagnosed in May. RARP in September. On ADT Orgovyx 40 days before surgery. Decipher not done.

This does sound like a pretty safe solution. While you do have active prostate cancer, it is not real aggressive from the looks of your biopsy.

Waiting a few months is not gonna make a difference. If they find a higher Gleason score after the surgery It probably won’t be much more aggressive,.

The odds are in your favor.
