Radical Prostatectomy (Surgery)

How this treatment impacted my life the most

The main impact of this treatment was that once the surgery was over and I was told the cancer had been removed it meant I could get on with living my life.

If I had to do it all over again, would I choose the same treatment?

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

For me it was a no brained as there are side effects with all treatments but surgery for me meant I could deal with the cancer then move on.
