sad news but so much has been learnt about prostate cancer in the last few years David dearnley and ross eels of cancer uk have done lots to bring on treatment they run a team at The Royal Marsden in London
after the tests your doctors will work out what to do which as you say could be an op and or chemo or radiotherapy also of course in many cases they do nothing
they just watch and re scan depending on your bloods (tumor markers) to see how fast it grows
the urologists will work with the radiologists to try and sort you out
