@bens1, thanks much for your reply to my first Mayo Connect posting! I will investigate Decipher. I’ve done quite a bit of research already, and I am familiar with SpaceOar.
By the way, I am not doing anything with Johns Hopkins besides sending them my slides and biopsy report for a second opinion on the biopsy. They will send their report to me and to my urologist.
By the way, if anyone is not familiar with PCRI (prostate cancer research institute)—they are an excellent resource with dozens of well-made video interviews with experts, and they have a volunteer staff of people who’ve had prostate cancer or their family members, who are available to answer questions by phone or email.
Onward!

James: you’re welcome. You are clearly taking as many steps as you can to make the best decision for your own circumstances. Feel free to private message me if you have any other questions from my own “cancer adventure”. I am happy to help, where I can. Even after your decision, there are “in the middle of it all and thereafter experiences” that research and doctors help with but does not shed light on except through the eyes of a patient. Good luck and good health!
