@paullvlc I was 77 with a good quality of life and loving sex at 40 yrs of marriage. I had surgery, radiation and 2 rounds of Lupron . My quality of life is gone and wish I did nothing. Only you can make such a serious decision. I’m almost 2 yrs post surgery, no sex which for some is mentally very difficult. My numbers were 3/4 and 4/3 I will always miss the way I felt before my decision

@graybeard46 Thank you for responding. I still have a PET scan due but am still leaning toward doing nothing. Anything I do will diminish my quality.
