Hi, I’ve now enlisted into the club nobody wants to be in, but it is what it is and I need to deal with it. I’ve just been diagnosed (April) - having got over the initial shock, anger, fear & mental anguish I now need to decide on treatment route.
I’m 67 yrs old, diagnosis is Grade 2 (3+4), T2 N0 MX
Three options have been suggested: 1) Active Surveillance, 2) Prostatectomy via DaVinci; 3) Radiotherapy.
Iif anyone can help me make a little more sense of this with places to go for info etc or real life examples I’d so appreciate it.
My preference at moment is SABR or HiFu if suitable (this would be private as my Hosp in Oxford doesn’t offer this). The surgery scares me to bits especially at my age along other health issues I have.
Any thoughts from this community or advice on these treatments, I’d hugely appreciate it. Many thanks Phil
