What Are The Signs And Symptoms Of Prostate Cancer?

I have prostate cancer found from several biopsies. This will be the 5th time I have had what I would consider major cancer. The bone scan and CT scan were both negative. so my options at this point boil down to Removal, or Radiation. How successful is radiation, and would it be as good of an option as removing the prostate?

Dear patient,

After you are diagnosed with prostate cancer after several biopsies, the first think to do is to remove it surgically and follow the chemio combined with the radation to make sure that those cancer cell, if are still remained post operation will die, and will not reproduce themselves in no way, causing problems after some time. Aggresive treatment should be considered after the diagnose of the cancer, and meanwhile you should not stress yourself, take care of your diet, walk a little and be strong.

I wish you all the best and I hope this helped.
Good luck,
Best Regards,
Dr. Eni
