How this treatment impacted my life the most

Once I had taken the decision to go with HIFU then I was confident I had made the right decision. The difficulty I had from the start is that I did not feel that I initially had good advice about what treatment would be best for mer. I appreciated that I was given the decision but diod not feel equipped to take the right decision. The original hospital did not carry out focal therapy and the consultant was disparaging about its effectiveness. I asked to be referred to another hospital.

If I had to do it all over again, would I choose the same treatment?

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

One I was reffered to the consultant who carried out my treatment I felt completely confident and had very good treatment. I cannot speak more highly of the team.
