This forum is for the discussion of anything to do with Prostate Cancer. There are only four rules:
No fundraisers, no commercials (although it is OK to recommend choices of treatment or medical people based on your personal research; invitations to participate in third-party surveys are also acceptable, provided there is no compensation to YANA);
No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making
Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.
Since this is an International Forum, please specify your location in your post.

I am responding to your ending comment; namely: "Any thoughts would be appreciated."
There are precious few of us who will substitute our judgement for your Doctor's.
I urge you to undertake a personal research effort in an attempt to determine what treatment option best fits you and your initial diagnosis. Your entries on this forum suggest you are capable of such an effort.
You might also think in terms of a second opinion from an oncologist.
Best wishes Don
Thank you again, Don, for your wisdom and insight. I appreciate the fact that you want to avoid recommendations for obvious reasons. I guess a better question might have been who had it and what their experience was. I am anxiously waiting to speak with my oncologist the week after next after they finish my OnctypeDx which is not in yet. Not quite pins and needles, but a fairly high level of anxiety as I wait.
