hi all,
Just asking for thoughts/ knowledge on different hospitals/areas approach to salvage treatment following RP and recurrence
I had RP in Nov’ 2014, PSA undetectable until Summer 2017 (0.1 then 0.2)
MRi clear, bone scan clear
December 2017 started Bicalutamide 150mg daily
February 2017 commenced 30 or 32 sessions of radiotherapy (finished early April)
Currently due to end HT in December 2019 but I am really itching to stop asap but afraid of going against the medical advice
so my question is why there seems to be a wide variation in approach? Some oncology offer 18 months of HT rather than my 2 years and I think Lynne has mentioned before that some don’t offer HT at all. Seems nuts to me as I would like to imagine that there was good research to drive their treatments
(I’m in Glasgow btw)
