PROSTATE CANCER SUPPORT SITE

 

 

This forum is for the discussion of anything to do with Prostate Cancer.
There are only four rules:

  • No fundraisers, no commercials (although it is OK to recommend choices of treatment or medical people based on your personal research; invitations to participate in third-party surveys are also acceptable, provided there is no compensation to YANA);
  • No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
  • No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
  • Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making

Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.

Since this is an International Forum, please specify your location in your post.

Re: newly diagnosed

kapm,
If I was in your situation I would strongly recomend AS. With a year or so of AS you can get a better idea of how aggressive your cancer is. It probably is a very "mild" case. If it is a mild case you probably wouldn't feel any problems from it for 10 years and may not die for 15 years without any treatment at all. The other thing to remember is that huge strides are being made in understanding prostate cancer and better drugs and treatments are coming out all the time. In ten years there might be treatments with none of the nasty side effects of today's treatments.
