Hi Kevin

Welcome to the club that you probably didn’t want to join. The folk on here are tremendously supportive, as are the specialist nurses (see top of page) if you want to have a chat in person.

If you are able and feel that you want to a little info about yourself and your diagnosis will help us to help you. If you click on our names or roundel you can see our own stories which might give you an idea as to the breadth of experience available!

It is a very troubling time especially if you have recently been diagnosed and do not yet have a treatment pathway identified. It does get easier when the treatment is underway - and then it is just a question of managing that.

Do come back to us - we are here to help each other.

All the best

Best wishes - stay positive

Hi Kev.

Welcome to the forum, mate.

I assume that you're on active surveillance with low grade, low volume, low psa and T2 prostate confined disease. As Ceepee says it would help us help you if you could give your diagnosis details.

You'll get plenty of help and support here. 👍
