Thanks Lyn and Geoff.
This trial is quite an exciting prospect, but it is going to be hard work I think. I got the schedule of initial appointments this morning, which involves one appointment for a MUGA scan on the 7th Aug, three separate appointments (scans etc) on the 13th August and a further three appointments on the 22nd. That is just for starters!
All assumes of course that I am found to be eligible
I still feel knocked out after the RT treatment yesterday, but hoping that it settles in a few days. But for the last week (it started before the first RT treatment) I started getting a quite pain in my right armpit. It is getting worse by the day and I find it a bit worrying. HAs anyone else experienced this?
Geoff,
It sounds like your story is very similar to my own, though I did see a nurse practitioner at the GP surgery the very first time I went about the pains in my back, She was wonderful and knew exactly what she was looking for. She sent me right away for a PSA test and everything went on from there. That was in June 2015. I have often wondered what might have happened had I got an appointment with an actual GP!
I hope your next appointment goes well and that your onco has some interesting options for you.
Peter
