I am 74 and 10 more years gets me to 84 and 15 to 89 and I really don't want to wind up in a nursing home and all my friends dead like is happening already. If I was 50 it would be an entirely different story and these cancer doctors don't seem to take age into account. The only thing that made me unfavorable intermediate risk was my two 4-3 Gleason cores. My PSA was 2.9 and the number of positive cores was very low and only confined to one lesion area of my prostate. Good luck. My no longer urologist stopped prescribing my testosterone when I didn't want to do a Urolift for my large prostate, so I went to an endocrinologist, and I am so glad I did.

Thank you Mike, good perspective and I also need to lose weight and I hadn't thought of an endocrinologist so I just requested an appt. Much appreciated.
