I had Gleason score of 7, also. Decided on HDR brachytherapy. It's been 13 years
and I have no signs of cancer. The cancer has not yet spread beyond the area right around the prostate.

Happy with the result, though the radiation has had some side effects. If you want to discuss, drop me a message. I looked at all the options and happy to talk.

I thought the HDR radiation would be enough, but I was told that if you have the prostate removed and there is still some cancer, they can then do radiation later, so that might be a stronger approach.

It was a scary time, and I wish you the best. The good news is that prostate cancer is very treatable and very slow growing.
