fredz: my psa went from 6 to 8.5 and 10.0. Had the prosate mri, did the biopsy and all showed confined to prostate. Did the decipher test for aggressiveness and spoke with 6 radiation oncologists (2 from centers of excellence) all with slightly different opinions including 2 that said nccn.org recommends adt if PSA over 10. All suggested radiation or removal. Doing the radiation using Viewrays MRIdian machine. Tight margins with auto turn off. The radiation oncologist said she was not inclined to do Adt. Your in the right place to get a feel for live experiences.

Than you Ben, my urologist suggested to wait another three months and do another PSA test , he also send me to an oncologist for his opinion too the oncologist suggestion was do radiotherapy instead of removal , I mentioned to him that I read an article online in which it was explaining IF you do radiations then later on you can’t do the surgery to remove the prostate!!, he disagreed to that and told me to go on live your life and don’t worry much but just keep checking and go back to him and my urologist every three months to see how’s it going .
I’m 64 and in pretty good shape other than diabetes which I’m taking pills for it .
Thanks again for your time .
🙏🏼
