Radical Prostatectomy (Surgery)

How this treatment impacted my life the most

My father died young at 52 due to cancer. So at 71 I was fearful of the worst

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

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

I was determined from the outset to have the prostate and the cancer within it removed entirely if I could. I didn’t want to regret ever not doing it
