@wwsmith yes, definitely a lot of high risk factors which make getting the primary treatment right even more important. Thanks for the suggestion of a brachytherapy boost, I'll discuss that with the RO. The RO is with a center of excellence (Siteman Cancer Center in St. Louis) and they do offer brachytherapy.

@klw23 And remember, HDR brachytherapy is different from low dose brachytherapy that uses permanent seeds. HDR is used far more often in current times than low dose brachy. You can also use SBRT has a radiation boost to the prostate as well.
