Thank you so much. Even though we completely realize everyone has own situation and priorities, etc it was very helpful to read through your experiences. The initial choice seems very similar to our current situation and right now, we are leaning towards RP surgery over brachytherapy. Even though long term development of potential rectal and bladder urgency/inflammation issues aren’t common with brachytherapy, my husband really would like to avoid those and prefers to stick with the risks for ED and urine leakage issues related to surgery. Thank you also for your candor about your after effects - it is helpful especially as most information out there is so vague. And also thank you for the link on space oar. We had read a bit about that type of product. As we may need later radiation treatments even if we fully decide for surgery as first line treatment, it is good information to have. I’m very glad to hear your PSA is cooperating with your treatments 🙂 Thanks again
