Q: Prostate cancer and Spinal stenosis

He is currently looking into surgery for prostate cancer. Has gleason of 6&7 Doctor says prostate needs to come out.
He also has had constant back injections for spinal stenosis and is losing some sensation in legs and feet.
Both doctors want to do surgery asap. Someone told him he should be back surgery first since his nerves and possibly
blood supply to back is being limited.
Need some help with decision, if possible, a doctor's opinion.
Thanks
