Hello Blue1 ,
A warm welcome to the club you didn't want to join, and I am sorry to find you joining us.
We had a new member with an almost identical diagnosis a couple of days ago and a link to that thread is here along with my reply and those of others,
Help with options on treatments
Treatment is very personal and differs from Health Authority to Health Authority. The plan should be now that you have a diagnosis your results should go to an MDT meeting who will tell you their thoughts on the best treatment plan. This guide may also help:
The Staging-and-grading-of-prostate-cancer.
It's very personal and up to you what treatment plan you take. Remember any treatment has side effects which will affect you and any partner.
Do feel free to ask any questions, nothing is too trivial.
Best wishes - Brian.
