First, get the book I have pictured here. My Gleason was 8, 4+4, 25% involved. Bone scan and CT Scan showed no metastasis. 62 years old.

Doc advised surgery because of aggressive cancer. So I did my reading and it backed up my doctor.

This is a proven work of information. Statistics bear out the options so you are a little more objective with your decision.

There is the shock factor, but once you get past the initial wave, I pray for you to have peace with your decision.

Agree completely. Read this book, Dr. Walsh's "Surviving Prostate Cancer". It is very comforting for yourself and family. Initial shock of diagnosis can be overwhelming. After doing the research and readi8ng this book your internal alarm and panic systems will move away from Code Red. Then you can make a choice that best fits your needs.

Good luck and best wishes.
