Update on my personal war with PCa

Well, my second opinion biopsy report came in from John Hopkins and they upgraded my 4+3=7 Gleason to 5+4=9 Gleason. The 5+4 is for 3 cores of my right base and 4+3=7 for 1% of my right mid core. My right upper core and my left lobe are all benign. Initially, I was shocked by the increase to a Gleason 9, but after a couple days, I felt that knowing that it's a Gleason 9 now, we can treat my PCa as a Gleason 9 and not under treat as a Gleason 7.
I have an appointment on April 7th with my radiology oncologist to set up a simulation treatment and mapping. I think that's what it's referred as when my daily dosages and schedule is planned, and the targeted tumor is marked with a tattoo.
I had my first Lupron shot about a month ago and I'm have hot flashes here and there, nothing major.
Now, I'm hoping that all of these treatments are being done before my PCa has spread.

Thank you, I appreciate your support

Boomer…Sorry to hear the upgrade; however, I agree it’s always better to know what you’re facing so you can make better decisions. My guess is the Lupron is a good move and should keep everything under control. Two close friends on Lupron both said staying active helped mitigate the side effects significantly. Best wishes…Terry

Thank you Isit, Terry and Jack.
Yah, it's unnerving when I was upgraded. Back in November, when I had my full body bone scan and CT. scan, the only problem found were 2 lesions on my left ribs which were BX and found to be benign.
Right now, I'm a workout demon. I've always worked out on a daily basis, but now I'm doing double sessions 3 days a week (weights, then aerobic) and just aerobic 3 days a week with one day of rest. Psychologically, I feel like I'm fighting the Ca by maintaining a healthy body. Also, my wife and I are on a plant-based eating program (almost 6 years now).
Anyway, thanks to all of you for the support and advise.
