Low intermediate: You have NCCN low intermediate risk cancer and aggressive monitoring is one of your options. I advise going to NCCN.org where u can read about all options. I also think you may benefit from an Oncotype Dx test that can better classify your risk of aggressive cancer; go to the web and search genomics prostate cancer risk test for more info
