Well here we go first a little back ground my dad had prostate cancer 8 yrs. back so I got the phone call to go in and get checked that was in my early 40's now 48 .Last week I was diagnosed with early the stages of prostate cancer
. Out of the 12 biopsy samples 2 came back positive with LESS than 5% so that is a good thing caught it early. So yes I know I need surgery. I have two options watch and wait or right to surgery I am leaning towards w/w where we would monitor the cancer I would go in every 3 months for a psa. and see were it is at since it is a SLOW growing cancer. Am I being stupid for thinking this way what are your opinions?? I just don't want to deal with this now at the beginning of summer and golf season would rather do it in late fall. My advice is any one has a family history or not GET IN GET CHECKED it is not that bad. I had to since it runs in the family.1 out of every 3 men will have to deal with this in there lifetime..
