Sounds like you need another opinion, if for no other reason to know your options. Since you live in Colorado I would suggest a virtual visit with Mayo. They will request all of your records prior to your visit. I have had virtual visits with a Mayo urologist followed by a virtual visit with a radiation oncologist and will have high dose brachytherapy in Rochester next month. I had the option of the high dose or proton therapy but chose the high dose due to reduced travel and a past history of radiation treatment. Considering your age and family history you may feel more confident with going to a Center of Excellence for prostate cancer.
