Is the surgery being suggested by the health team to remove the lymph node? Have you researched and talked with your health team about ADT? Your screening is very robust with multiple PSMAPET in a short period of time. What clinical trial are they suggesting?

I've received a few different opinions, surgery can only maybe delay adt and radiotherapy by a couple of years but I would have to pay €25000 as it's a private hospital, the trial is RT, ADT 6 months and with the posibility of apalutamide 6 months if selected.
I have decided just to go with my social welfare hospital and receive standard of care treatment, 6 months eligard with RT to prostate bed and pelvis with 45gy-62.5gy
in 25 sessions with sib boost and sequentially SBRT 33gy in 11gy x3 to the pet positive lymphnode.
