Big C prostate support group

I come to the Big C's Prostate support group. The biggest benefit is if you’re not married you also have the women’s group for support. They ask questions that men don’t even think about so it’s beneficial for both the partners and the rest of the group. When I was asked about treatment options I went to see the urology nurses and they were trying to determine the best probable route for me. I then said I wanted to see all the consultants to talk about the pros and cons of all the options to help make my decision. It felt like because I was over 73 I might not be given the choice of surgery but I’d already decided I wanted surgery. I saw one consultant who told me she wouldn’t recommend having radiotherapy because of where the cancer was. I saw another who told me that I was right to want to have surgery. I just felt like if I had said I wanted radiotherapy would they still have said the same thing? I had the surgery and was only in for one night – the nurses were brilliant but was definitely pleased I was only there for one night! Just want to add that, Phil in Andrology has been brilliant!
