The consultant says surgery. Within six weeks. Eight specialists agree. But what if they're wrong?
Paul Sweeney was 55 with a young family when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. He was supposed to be grateful and compliant. Instead, he did his own research.
What he found shocked him. The landmark ProtecT trial — 1,600 men, 15 years — showed no survival difference between surgery and monitoring. The "manageable" side effects? An 85% chance of permanent erectile dysfunction. Thousands of men regretting their decision.
MANHANDLED exposes why the system pushes treatment you may not need, what surgeons won't tell you about life after the knife, and how to take control when everyone's telling you to comply.
Inside this book, you'll discover:
• Why eight out of eight specialists recommended immediate surgery — and why the evidence didn't support it
• What the ProtecT trial really showed about surgery vs. active surveillance
• The side effects no one prepares you for, and how they're routinely downplayed
• The evidence-based interventions your consultant won't mention — from lifestyle and nutrition to targeted supplementation — and the research behind them
• How to challenge your consultant, get a second opinion, and make a genuinely informed decision
• Why active surveillance is a legitimate, evidence-based choice — not a gamble
• Where to find the resources and research to help you decide what's right for you
If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, read this book before you sign the consent form.
Paul Sweeney refused surgery three years ago. His cancer hasn't progressed.
