Patients face a real dilemma when selecting among so many treatments with potentially irreversible consquences. Studies show that treatment choices based on partial information often lead to regret.</p><p>When initally diagnosed with prostate cancer, the first step is to seek information. Patients struggle to pinpoint correct knowledge amidst a deluge of data overload. The "Paradox of Choice" can be diminished by staging the cancer accurately. The pathway leading out of this confusion is to know your Stage of Blue.
