@nemco1 Your "numbers" and other test results are similar to mine (check my profile for details). I have stayed on AS with more frequent PSA monitoring and MRI-biopsy plans for early 2027. Quality of life is leading the discussion for me. Things are pretty good right now aside from the usual ravages of aging. I've ruled out RP at age 81, even though I had a hip and knee replacement (at 78 and 79). Also disinclined to do ADT from all I've read and heard on this forum. If I have to do something, it will probably be some kind of focal therapy. And who knows, Maybe they'll develop a treatment that's even kinder to octogenarians! Good wishes to you!
