Description:
Written by a surviving prostate cancer patient and his urologist, Prostate Cancer: Making Survival Decisions provides not just a physician's overview of the disease, but the compassion, understanding, and frankness of a man who's lived through the experience. From the first symptoms to early diagnosis to life after treatment, journalist Sylvan Meyer details every facet of the disease from the patient's point of view. Along with a clear, complete guide to the latest treatments, techniques, and findings, Meyer outlines the tough decisions the patient will face; describes what it's like to go through all the tests, the treatment, and the recovery; and provides an understanding of how the patient himself can affect the outcome. A superb synthesis of medical knowledge and compassionate advice, Prostate Cancer: Making Survival Decisions will help you understand: The difference between prostate cancer and other diseases of the prostate; the different stages and grades of prostate cancer and how they should affect your decision when choosing a treatment; the risk of recurrence, side effects, and the mortality rates associated with each available treatment; and which doctors you can depend upon and which statistics you can believe.
