That appears to be true and is a huge part of the equation to me. I’m getting closer to my decision but not there yet.
Wait until you get Dr. Walsh's book and read it completely before you make your decision. With a Gleason score of 6, waiting a few weeks (or even a few months) to make the correct or best decision is much more important than making a quick or hasty decision. Dr Walsh's book will give you a tremendous amount of information, from one of the most knowledgeable doctors in the world when it comes to treating prostate cancer. You have been diagnosed early enough to take the time to make an informed decision.

Good luck. My prayers go with you.
