Hello everyone.

Aged 66, I have recently been diagnosed with early stage Prostate Cancer, T2a  with a Gleason score of 3+4. I have been offered either surgery to remove or radiotherapy with hormone treatment. This is quite a dilemma. I met with the surgeon a couple of weeks ago and have an Oncology consultation tomorrow.

  1. I have reached out to friends/relatives who have experience of PCa and have drawn up a list of Pros and Cons for both treatments having also read up as much as possible.

Has anyone on here had the option of either treatment and, if so, what influenced your decision?

Many thanks.
