Add this condition to the list of dreadful side effects of treatment for prostate cancer. Gotta say, you have to wonder whether or not it's worth it, I'd personally rather be dead than have a shorter, twisted, useless penis. I do appreciate all the information and supportive ideas on this channel, hope I don't have to make the choice to treat pCa or die from metastatic disease.
Hi Wade, thank you for commenting, I can understand how hearing about the possible side effects would make a person question whether treatment was worth it. What we aim to deliver on this channel is realistic expectations so men don't feel like they're suffering alone, and also genuine hope, as there are a lot of options and ways side effects can be addressed. In fact, this particular video is just the start of a series of videos on Peyonrie's where Dr. Milios talks us through effective early intervention strategies so that someone can notice the early signs of Peyronie's (covered here), and then take action to stop it in its tracks (the next videos that we will be posting over the coming weeks).
@ATouchySubject thanks so much for your reply, really do appreciate it and the great information in your videos. Keep them coming and I'll keep watching. 😊
As someone who has had a radical prostatectomy, I have to say I'm glad I had it.
My doctor told me that if I hadn't had regular psa tests and then surgery, I would be dead within 5 years.
That was 7 years ago when I was 53. It is worth it and It's good to still here.
The side effects are minute compared to the alternative. Having seen people die from cancer, it isn't quick like a heart attack and not a way I'd want to go.
@steveraleigh100 I suppose I might feel the way you do if I had pCa at such an early age. I myself am older and have not yet been diagnosed, but like many men in their 60's I have elevated PSA's presumably due to my known BPH. I will see another urologist for a second opinion in a few weeks, looking for a more definitive work up than I've had so far (e.g. a transrectal ultrasound) to confirm the presumptive diagnosis. Radical prostatectomy would be my last choice for treatment based on my research, but I'm glad to hear you are glad you had yours. I too have lost friends and family members to cancer and agree it's awful, but quality of life remains more important to me than longevity.
@@MrGuitar1458 60 is still young. I'm 61 this year and I'd make the same decision. A friend went through early PC too and he was advised to try radiotherapy first to see how it goes. If he could make the decision again, he'd go for Radical Prostatectomy as the RT didn't do anything for him and it has spread over his body.
In my case, it would have been the same. Mine was aggressive - as my urologist discovered while performing surgery, as in a few weeks, it had spread from the prostate to surrounding tissue. Hence, the 5 years max if I'd done nothing.
Luckily he had managed to get all the cells and I appear to be good, 7 years on.
He told me what we do is up to me, as it should be your choice too.
Your situation could be different to mine. I hope you will be ok.
