GL6 isn't considered to be treatable cancer by most doctors these days. Rather than risk the side effects of any form of treatment I'd leave it alone and monitor over time. This is a very slow going cancer in most cases so you will most likely die from other causes before you will from PCa. Best to you on this journey.
