Deciding How To Treat Prostate Cancer

Deciding how to treat my prostate cancer was the most difficult decision I've made in my life. Whether to go with active surveillance, some form of radiation, or surgery is not an easy decision.

No matter how frightening it is to have heard the word cancer, it the majority of cases it won't matter from a treatment outcome if you take a few weeks or months to research treatment options, and make appointment with various Specialists in the field before you decide how to treat your prostate cancer.

Unless you have a highly aggressive form of postate cancer, don't let fear rush you into any decision you may regret.

I suggest reading 3 books at this point. Here's are the links:
