Thank you for that, I have been told the fact I had so much pain has probably helped make the detection of this at a early stage. Urologist didn't want to operate, radiologist didn't want to use radiation, would cause more pain with high chance of making it worse. Wife and I left to make choice, radiologist agreed to do it only after I agreed to accept poor outcome, Ha, pain much reduced, came through radiation well, he was stunned. 😀
