Tips and advice for any mental and emotional side effects of treatment

Counselling definitely helps.

How this treatment impacted my life the most

The treatment itself was fine but the problem was that another cancer (GIST) was growing in my abdomen. I think there’s a chance this was missed because everything pointed to the prostate.

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

Not sure

Why did I give this answer?

This answer is because of what I mentioned in the previous one with my GIST Cancer. The treatment I would have kept the same but I would have asked the different testing to cover other issues.
