Good luck with the treatment Neville. It's not nice that it has spread outside the prostate but it is excellent news that it has not got to the bones. Hopefully the RT and Hormone Therapy will be the belt and braces job to keep it contained.

Hello Neville

You seem to have similar diagnosis to me. I was on HT and have had 37 sessions of RT

Have a look at my profile to see where I was at diagnosis and where I am now

Be encouraged

Best wishes

Had my appointment with oncologist on Friday, she said she wanted me the on Hormone therapy for about 6 months then Will start radiotherapy in August.

arranged for a CT scan to check from neck down ( not sure why but in sure it was explained at time ).

I also had a further PSA blood.test and nurse phoned today and told me that PSA had dropped to 1.1 ( was previously 8.2). so I am delighted with that.

MY red cells were a bit low , now I just have to wait for my CT scan then radiotherapy.

also I asked staging and it was T3A N1 and M0
