Having looked at the prostate and cons and spoken to friends who have had both the op and hormone treatment. I have decided the op is the way to go. Feel better now I have made the decision.
Just need to wait for it to be scheduled.
Nice positive attitude Mickyrod : you’re already half way there. Good luck with the operation and I hope you can get a cancellation (may make yourself super flexible time wise & ask for one?). AW
Hi Mickyrod,
I made the same decision, having looked at the pros and cons. Surgeon said I’d have to wait 2-3 months for the appointment but to download the NHS squeezey app to work on my‘pelvic floor’ muscles at it will help with the recovery process. Best of luck with your surgery!
