I went to bed (we'll check in the morning) but a few hours later, had to call an ambulance as the pain was unbearable. Nothing was found in many...

Iv'e...

Since July 2017, I have visited about nine doctors. Also physios, acupuncture people etc. They were/are too bloody stupid to realize what was/is wrong with me.

I have just been diagnosed with Intermediate PC. It is contained in the "P" (had all the checks) Do I choose Radiation or Surgery? Surgery is to remove the Prostate completely. Your comments and advise would be greatly appreciated. Regards. Hetho.
