Radiation treatment

I wanted the least invasive treatment. My oncologist recommended radiation but never told me about the side effects of radiation long term. If I could turn back time I would have had a radical prostatectomy instead.

  1. Hi . It is terrible when you feel that you didn't get adequate information to make a decision. Do you mind if I ask how old you were when you had your treatment? I ask because it is known that some radiation side effects can even occur years later. How are you currently doing? Best, Richard (Team Member)
