Thanks  for the encouragement chaps. 

I’ll try and find out why I’ve been put forward for radiotherapy and let you know their reasoning. 


Appreciate hearing the story of men who are still around after a decade or more after diagnosis.  Thanks for sharing.  

It still feels surreal. Struggling to find the strength I need especially for my family. I know it’s early days yet…your example everyone is a BIG influence thank you  🙏

Re the RT its cutting edge and is proven to improve outcomes even at stage 4. As you don't have many Mets they may be targeting those to. Ask your onco if they can and why not if they say no.

Hi ,good luck with your treatment,my OH Gary was PSA 23 4+5 spread to lymph nodes aged 55

He had early chemo and now on Abi and Enzo as part of stampede trial .

He was diagnosed nearly 6.5 years ago , he is still working full time . Life is different to what it was but we still enjoy holidays and are about to welcome our 6th grandchild that keeps us on our toes .

Best wishes

Good to hear from you Debby and even better to hear about Gary doing well after over 6 years. That’s very encouraging as we are still grappling with the shock of the advanced PCa diagnosis. 

Please stay in touch. 

Wishing you all the best with everything and your little ones.
