I was diagnosed with prostate cancer, Gleason 3+4, and I'm about to have surgery, but I'm having doubts about whether it was the best decision.

It's completely natural to feel uncertain about treatment decisions, especially when facing something as significant as cancer surgery. Many people in this community have experienced similar doubts before their procedures, and these feelings are a normal part of processing such an important medical decision. Consider discussing any specific concerns with your medical team, as they can provide personalized guidance based on your individual situation and help address any questions that might be contributing to your uncertainty.
