How this treatment impacted my life the most

I had to go into Hospital & had a treatment which consisted of 16 rods placed into my prostate.Each rod was treated according to the different level by a nuclear reading ,& then the team retired away from the nuclear charge. I then went back to my room for 3 hours before I had another session. I left the hospital first thing in the morning.I was given no further treatment,but was continually checked.My readings became lower & lower & was a huge success.Without it I tink I would have been a gonna.

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

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

Because without it I would'nt be here
