Hey Bella2013. I posted a thank you repsonse but didn't do it on your wall so didn't know if you'd see it. Thank you for taking the time to help. You have a good point that will help me...once you decide on treatment, don't 2nd guess...use that energy to focus on getting better, etc. Thanks, Steven

BELLA2013, thanks so much for the offer to help. I am reaching the point where I am thankful for the support of others. Its interesting that I did not value this site at first, not because of its value but because of the rawness and unknown with my own journey.
I now know I am "OK" for another year and until that check-up. The physician appointment that gave me that news was just about ten days ago. Only since I have been aware of that fact have I been able to even venture back in here to look at what others are experiencing.
I would like to offer my support and honesty to you and to any other men dealing with this issue. Especially guys who are younger, as I could not find any when I needed to reach out for someone who understood.
Bless you buddy for reaching out.

Your story is very positive and you'll serve as an inspiration to a great deal of people, including myself. I thought I was alone, being that I'm only 48 and just diagnosed on Tuesday of this week. Thank you.

Oooh, I like your style. :-D

I am in the same boat... diagnosed at 46. Had the robot 6 months ago.
