Martyn's Story
Prostate, glands and nerves removed. Hence can't have sex anymore.
I never had any treatment ...the depression, I guess I had prior to diagnosis. I was diagnosed as having kidney cancer which when being checked found I prostate cancer and bladder cancer. I must add that I was checked for prostate cancer as I had enlarged prostate but told I was clear. That was after being told I had kidney cancer.
I did not have any treatment, I have answered the questions after operations. I had to have surgery. Prostate..bladder removed along with glands and nerves. I had a cancer growth on my right kidney frozen after the other operations. It became secondary.
Not sure
I never had any treatment hence I cant answer some questions. What I can say is that, problems with my prostate was identified (enlarged) many years ago. When kidney cancer was identified, I had day surgery to check my prostate and was given the all clear. Months later as I have mentioned I lost my bladder...prostate...glands and nerves. You can guess my thoughts on that.
