Gleason 3+4, How did you treat?

Thanks - good input. I would love to run but after my last spinal fusion my neurosurgeon said no more impact sports (or torquing). It drives me crazy because I live on a golf course and there is an active tennis/pickleball community and I can't partake in any of it. I can't believe that I hit the health trifecta - coronary, neuro, and now cancer!

The Decipher score is definitely a good idea, and others have suggested PET as well. I don't want to rush into anything because my schedule is pretty full (birthday this month, 50th anniversary next month, trying to get my northern house on the market, officiating my grandsons wedding in November, and of course the holidays). No good window for extended downtime, but I have to be realistic.

Don’t worry nothing really you need to do regarding the Decipher but a phone call to your Urologist or whoever performed your biopsy and request they do it.
