This link shows draft proposals for updating NICE guidelines out for consultation. There's a lot of interesting data and statistics and much to plow through but some very interesting information for those who have not already found it :- https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/ng131/documents/draft-guideline

Hi Barry,

Only had a quick look so far but it makes interesting reading.

Thanks.

As you say very interesting, particularly the bits on RT following RP.

The recommended follow up PSA checks are also interesting I thought I was being radical opting for annual checks after 2 years but according to nice that is their recommendation.

Hi Barry.

I don't do very much on the Forum these days although I keep looking in to see how everyone is getting on.When I say everyone I mean those who were around when I was a little more active on the Forum.

Your posting here concerns the draft Consultation for NICE guidance/ng131/documents/draft-guideline. The full guidance was published on 9 May 2019 under the link below.

www.nice.org.uk/guidance/ng131

This latest guidance from NICE replaces their guIdelines CG175 and DG17

I say no more other than it makes for an interesting read!

Best regards to you and the other long standing members of the Forum.

Interesting Information Barry. I note that in my situation the oncologist used his experience to combine HT with radical salvage radiotherapy as my PSADT was 1.2 months which is now a recommended approach.

I was t2c yet they treated me as intermediate not high risk as this suggests

I was not offered docetaxel which this recommends for high risk

I was given hormone therapy yet this did not recommend it for relapse by default

I was given an mri scam but they did not recommend it for a relapse

All a bit random really and I have no idea if I was intermediate or high risk in reality

Hey ho
