    Have Stage 4A Ductal Prostate Cancer that spread to the pelvic area. While it had spread I had surgery. This was based on recent studies that shown long term advantages for removing the primary source of cancer. This was followed by Lupron and Zytiga with prednisone. Finally 38 rounds of radiation. That was 2 1/2 years ago. So far so good. Note, because it is Ductal it does not PSA. As a result I get scans every six months .

    Why is not removing the prostate even mentioned as an option? Because i seen other videos where they remove the prostate immediately and they seem fine. Is stage 4 prostate cancer not allowed to remove the prostate?
