Are Fatigue And Confusion Related Prostate Cancer?

My father has been excessively sedentary for years, has a very enlarged prostrate, recently hospitalized for a fall and is presenting chronic fatigue, new levels of confusion, diarrhea, no motivation, no energy, no strength. He also currently has a foley catheter as he was unable to urinate for a couple of weeks! He is awaiting a visit with a urologist. Are the symptoms I mentioned ever related to prostate cancer?

You seem to suffer from -Could be from Head Injury with Cerebral Concussion- as he had a fall before hospitalization.
Other causes- as-Uremia with Chronic BEP with Infection of UTI with catheter lately.Possibility of prostatic cancer is a matter of investigation from Urologist and can't be ruled out till then.
Consultation from Physician and Surgeon and Neuro and UroSurgeon is needed to fix the various possibilities, who would investigate the case and treat it accordingly.
