Hi Phil, hope your chemo treatment goes well for you. You’ve certainly been through the mill with having kidney failure and stones as well as PCa diagnosis and treatments. My husband Keith was diagnosed with PCa in September 2019 when he was put on HT Prostap injections, followed by chemo (Docetaxel), as it was suspected the cancer had spread to his right hip. It turned out this ‘apparently’ was not the case and most probably an old injury. I did document his experience of Docetaxel, It’s a bit longwinded as I was in complete shock at the time of writing. Following chemo he then had Radiotherapy. To be honest the HT has had more of a lasting impact on him mentally and physically. Fortunately, following all treatments, his PSA has remained undetectable. Further PSA test next week and we are keeping our fingers crossed the result remains still undetectable. Always an anxious time. Keith’s only sibling/Brother passed away in October and this has really ‘knocked him sideways’, and again brings home our vulnerability. I am busy making plans for holidays next year and we have our family and grandchildren to love and enjoy.
So pleased to hear you are off to Tenerife for Christmas, hope you have a very enjoyable time. All the best going forward.
