10th anniversary update

User

Hi all

Just past 10th anniversary of diagnosis last month. Thought I would give a little update. 

Enzalutamide stopped being effective after 30 months, psa risen to 420. Started Cabazitaxel mid July, just had 3rd dose last week. So far apart from a jippy tummy for a few days after treatment not noticing any side effects & still living life normally. Making the most of the good weather & heading off for a camping trip  for few days.

Have an oncol appointment next week to see where we are with psa & how effective the Cabazitaxel is & how many sessions were going for if it is effective.
