I am not a prostate cancer survivor
Unnecessary Prostate Biopsy
My biopsy showed a small 1 mm section of 1/19 cores with 4 cells, and my surgeon couldn't wait to rip it out of me. Afterward, the pathology showed no cancer! The best theory is that whatever "cancer" I have come out with the biopsy needle. So now at 61, I can no longer get an erection, unless I stick a needle in my penis, for nothing. I did not need the surgery. What's even worse is I can't even think of myself as a "survivor." I'm just an idiot that listened to my Dr and is not suffering for that horrible decision.
