@jc76 I’m waiting on my Prolaris test results but I understand this or the Decipher tells me how aggressive the cancer is and not the current stage it is now as determined by the biopsy.

That is my understanding as well.
I always bring up the Decipher test because it has such a dramatic affect on my treatment plan. When I got the biopsy report the R/Os said I was at intermediate risk and the plan was to do 20 rounds of photon radiation with hormone treatment. But he added want to order a Decipher test. I did not know what a Decipher test back at that time (3.5 years ago).
The Decipher test came back low risk not intermediate risk and it changed my treatment plan to radiation only.
