@mikemp Twenty years ago, my father-in-law chose brachytherapy and it worked out great. He's still around at 92 y/o. Back in 2023 I was diagnosed with a Gleason 7 (4+3), PSA 11.9

My urologist suggested either RALP or EBRT with ADT. I chose the latter and, though dealing with the ADT side effects is a drag, I am pulling through and thankful everything worked out fine, so far.

By the way, the same radiation oncologist that administered the brachytherapy on my father-in-law, supervised my EBRT.

@juanmoczo did you consider brachytherapy?
