I am curious too if the stage ever changes for the better after treatment. If it is in the lymph nodes it that considered stage 4, or not unless it mets outside of prostate region?

I have stage 4A. That means no distant metastasis. My cancer spread to the regional lymph nodes in the pelvic area. As long as it does not metastasize to bones, lung or liver, prognosis still good. However, I know people with bone Mets that are still alive after 10-15 years.
