Yes 24 years ago things were very different. Depending on your Gleason scores etc you may have a very different treatment plan and all treatment including prostate removal have moved on considerably since then - even in the time since I was diagnosed over 6 years ago with laparoscopic and nerve sparing operations. My brother in law the first in our family to get PCa lived for over 15 years with stage 4 PCa and I still meet his consultant - now retired, at Prostate Cancer Charity Events and he says if only the treatment/ medication we have now had been available then he would have lived much longer with a far better quality of life.
