My doctor says removal because I am “young enough and healthy enough” to get things back to near normal in no more than six months. More likely to be 3-5 months.
My dad had radiation at Mayo 15 years ago and his came back on him last year and actually got outside the prostate. He is 80 now.
I expected to go the radiation route but my doctor says my long term results would be more favorable with removal. I’m leaning that way but I have not committed to anything yet. He will support me if I decide for radiation.
Correctly stated, a lot of men have dealt with this and won’t talk about it unless asked. I’m just trying to gain knowledge from experience, read credible sources and then make a decision that is the right one for me.
