Nooo, don't cancel Noodles!!! If it is what the doctor advice it is a good thing. Sometimes it can take years for diagnosed prostate cancer patients to get treatment, so if I were you I would take it. Of course it is scary, always everything is, but think about the benefit you can have. I hope you did went through and didn't cancel. Wish you luck!

Thanks varjacks I did eventually pluck the courage up to go and I am on the mend now well all I can say what a confused state you can get into and you would believe it would be an easy decision to make but my advice to anyone is not to delay it leaving it can only make matters worse I now feel a lot better sychologicaly It's just up now another go at life

Hello everyone,

How are you doing? Have you seen this older discussion? emoticon cute

As you know, going through prostate cancer - from the moment of diagnosis until post-treatment - can be a challenging, even frightening experience. 

For those of you who have already been through your prostate cancer journey, or those who are still in the middle, do you have any thoughts or advice to share with others? Is there anything they should know or be aware of? What has helped you get through it?

Feel free to share here, we're all here to support one another!

Take care,
Courtney
