I joined this group a year ago when I was first diagnosed
Reading through all the posts it strikes me that others participating are dealing with really challenging issues. My problems/issues seem so trivial in comparison I don't post (although I'd like to at times). Any thouughts?
Thanks in advance

Yeah Bro most of us here all know the feeling It helps others and even more with yourself when you chime in and contribute your knowledge and experience.
If you're here and you are dealing with prostate cancer, your issues are going to be more challenging than someone who doesn't have to deal with it. We're all on different journeys, and I hope yours continues to be uneventful and great outcomes!
The advanced PC mailing list is so much more active that many of us in good shape post there, either because they thing it's more likely they'll get an answer or because they think they might offer help to others. But generally the questions about localized disease probably should be posted here.
But yeah, everyone has their own stuff, and there's generally plenty of mutual respect in either mailing list.
Everyone's condition in this forum has progressed from "trivial" issues to more critical ones. Most of us are happy to assist all comers when we have something useful to offer. The worst that can happen is that you may not get many responses, but it's worth posting anyway.
