If you haven't done so already, get a copy of Dr Patrick Walsh's "Guide to Surviving Prostrate Cancer" fourth edition. My Dr. recommended it to me while I was waiting for my biopsy, which at least at this round came back negative.

The main points he makes are:

All cases are different so find a comprehensive treatment center that does all types of treatments so you are not just directed to what they specialize in.

If you elect for surgery, also as stated above, find a surgeon that does A LOT of this. The more the better. His goal is at least 100 per year.

He discusses all of the latest developments in treatment including cryo/thermal ablation. This book is a must for anyone facing prostrate cancer, and should be read by all males over 40.
