when it comes to talking about prostate cancer.'
That is the message from Dorking cancer survivor Chris Eglington.
He was diagnosed with prostate cancer 10 years ago.
He has now been given the all clear and volunteers himself to talk about the topic.
Chris tells us how he reacted when he found out he had prostate cancer: "It hit me likomplete bombshell.
"Like most men at my age at the time, I didn't have a clue what it was all about.
"You think of cancer, you think of death.
"Well that's not the case now with prostate cancer.
"If it's caught early, and you have the right treatment, you can actually make a recovery."
Chris adds that men must talk about their health problems: "Men are the worst people to talk about any symptoms that really are below the belt."
Prostate Cancer UK has now launched its second wave of the Men United campaign.
It aims to empower men to talk about their issues.

The graphics in this series about Crossrail are wonderful. Slick animated diagr
ams show how tunnels for London’s new underground line have to weave betwe
en existing bits of the network.
At one stage engineers talk about “the eye of the needle” at Tottenham Court R
ad: the 900-ton digging machine has to bore its way through a gap between the
Northern Line and an esc
alator shaft with less than a metre’s leeway either side.
“It’s like conducting open-heart sur
gery while the patient is still awake,” says one of the projec
t managers. The drama here occasionally flags (watching cranes craning
is only so interesting) but it makes you appreciate the ingenuity of the engineering.
