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

@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.

Well, I am comfortable suggesting that the catheter post-op for 7 - 14 days is not the most important issue.
Surgery vs Radiation w/ ADT is a pretty big issue.
I, like Marlon, wanted the cancer removed and hopefully fully eradicated. Younger patients seem to do better with recovery and ED.
Salvage radiation has been a blessing as secondary treatment for many.
And, radiation is a good choice for many, if you go that route.
Best wishes
