Todd, our guest for today is all the way from the USA, thanks to the wonder of Zoom. He is a patient of Melissa’s and was very kind enough to share with us a glimpse of his experience from diagnosis to recovery. Get ready for a full dose of honesty and vulnerability.
Todd’s father had prostate cancer and as such his brothers and him have always been checked regularly. Once he got the diagnosis, he made sure to explore all the available options - radiation, cyberknife, and many more. The decision was difficult, but in the end he chose surgery.
From Todd’s experience, having all the information is not the only thing that a patient needs when deciding on treatment, but also, they need proper guidance in decision making.
Forward to today, he is now 1 year post op. The cancer is gone which is great, but he has been very distressed about sexual function and the lack of support for what he was going through after surgery.
Which brought him to find Melissa! And now, here he is to share his story.
Todd will talk about how he had to search for a solution to help him solve his problems, find answers to his questions, and what he did to get the phoenix to rise again!
What made the Phoenix rise again? Injections! Ta-da, the heavens opened!
However, Todd had to admit it wasn’t all smooth sailing… which prompted Melissa to have a full-on discussion about the proper way to do those injections and some trouble shooting tips. Make sure to take note of her instructions on that. ;)
And stay tuned for part 2 when we invite Todd back!
Enjoy listening!
