Active Surveillance

How this treatment impacted my life the most

it affected me not going to the gym because I thought what is the point because I was going to the gym to stay out of hospital and I still ended up there. But I started going back to the Gym in January and realised its part of my life and my self care and stress management and I missed it more than I thought I did.

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

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

piece of mind. I know I am being regularly monitored as I am going to the hospital every 6 months and they found the cancer early and the chances of living a 'normal' life when found early is great therefore, I keep telling myself that and that's what keeps me calm.
