I don’t see you mention your Gleason score anywhere. That could be a major factor of why the doctor made that decision.

My Gleason score was 3+4 = 7 with 6-10% cells rated "4". So it was as low of a "7" as you can get without being a 3+3=6. But the Gleason score means/meant nothing once the final surgical pathology report was issued with all of the unexpected additional tumor characteristics and cellular pathology.
Thanks
