Prostatectomy or Radiation?

@bobby1313 Waiting and choices are hard. I never experienced that, because I was in medical crisis and they had to rush me into the operating room to stop the metastasised tumour from continuing to crush my spine. After that, a prostatectomy wasn't an option (you don't generally do it when the cancer has already left the prostate), so it was just radiation to the spine, radiation to the prostate, ADT, and ARSI (so far so good, 4 years later 🤞).

I never went through the decision anguish most forum members have experienced, because things were happening too fast.

@northoftheborder .Hello..I'm sorry to hear that. It seems your decision wasn't really your decision. I am glad to hear your doing well 4 yrs later. I wish you all the best. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
