PROSTABLOG NZ: Why would anyone say that getting prostate cancer was actually good for them?
In his speech to open a Blue September event earlier this month, Auckland Regional Council chairman Mike Lee (left) said just that.
Talking about his experience with prostate cancer, he described trying to ignore his rising PSA levels, finally being diagnosed, making drastic changes to his lifestyle and diet, and undergoing brachytherapy. Then he made this comment:
“In some ways, in terms of all-round health, in a funny sort of way, getting prostate cancer was good for me.”
