Dealing with the initial news that you have prostate cancer

After never being sick or never being on any medication. To get the news that you have prostate cancer has overwhelmed me.Feeling fine

  1. My Dr called me while I was at work. I took it pretty hard, luckily I was working alone that day. When I heard cancer I thought right away of family members who had cancer and died (not prostate). I went into negative thinking mode right away. But after talking to my surgeon, most of my fears went away. My friends at our church were a big help also. I was 54 when I was diagnosed with it.
