Diagnosed today w/ PCa. Seeking feedback w/ treatment I think I want

When I faced that choice at 67, my docs said that I was on the border age-wise. Younger and they would recommend surgery. Older, and radiation was preferred. That was the opposite of what I expected. There are side effects for both treatments. I chose surgery, because I wanted that cancer out, ASAP. No regrets. Yes there are side effects.

@marlon Thank you for your response. In all honesty, I have been banging the keyboard on my computer this evening with a vengeance. The more I look into this thing, the more I start to warm up to removal. But the whole catheter thing is not appealing but I guess I would need to deal with it. Hearing that you have no regrets is helpful so thank you.
