I’m Jim Preen, a Londoner, who was diagnosed with prostate cancer in Autumn 2017. Regular readers of this blog will know I like to keep it light, but inevitably I do touch on subjects that might put you off your breakfast.

This is just my story and my treatment will differ widely from others with prostate cancer. I have no medical training so any thoughts I have or advice contained in this blog should be taken with a large dose of salt. However, if you’re anywhere near 50 and the proud owner of a prostate, go get it checked. A moment’s mild indignity could save your life.
