In 2005 my urologist though simply monitoring my prostate cancer development was reasonable.

For nine years, he monitored my PSA. In 2014, he did another biopsy and found more cancer in my prostate, so he recommended I have radiation seeds put into my prostate. I asked if it was OK to wait until golf season was over, and he agreed.
