Information from specialists and consultants

[Guest guest]

The more I learn about how people who are first diagnosed with Prostate

Cancer are told the options the more I realise there is a great variation in

the quality of information given at a time when they are under pressure.

Why don't hospital clinics keep Prostate Cancer Charity leaflets to hand

out?

Why do the consultants push there own specialism and rubbish all others?

I have heard today of two people who are looking into futher treatment

options - one against the view of a urologist and the other has been advised

that he has reached the stage in watchful waiting to consider treatment.

(Any more info would be breaching confidentiality!)

This makes me think that our minds must be open to various options all

through our fight with the beast!
