bearnova64 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Hello, I am in my late 50s and plan to move for good to Australia in the next few years with my Australian girlfriend and marry her a couple of years after arrival. I have recently been diagnosed with a very low level prostate cancer contained within just my prostate, which the experts say is so low they do not advise any treatment. Rather, they have strongly advised me to go onto what is called "active surveillance" which is monitoring me and only doing some treatment is the cancer develops. They have told me it may not ever develop and if it stays at its low level there is no need for any treatment, given all treatment options have some rather nasty side effects affecting bowels and water works etc which are best avoided, unless treatment becomes essential due to the cancer growing. Active surveillance is a very accepted treatment in Australia my specialist urologist Dr ( who has worked there) tells me. My question is if I apply in a few years time to move to Australia and I have this low level cancer and am on active surveillance and have been in a relationship with my girlfriend with evidence for some 10 years and am planning to marry in Australia, I would still be allowed to make to move to the country? I would not face being blocked entry on any medical grounds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
