Prostate Cancer

After my bladder op they found I have cancer there also.It's an aggressive kind but hasn't gone as far as the muscle. They've taken it away and gone deeper into the muscle as well. I've got a 2nd op there in 2 weeks to check up and get further biopsies.
Not started on prostate RT yet but it's coming soon.Had a blood test last week and psa has gone from 60 to 3.8.
I'm feeling fine though and keeping busy although the side effects from the injections of hot flushes take some getting used to.
I've been on the hormone tables now a few weeks + a hormone injection and no side effect at all ?
 
I was on the jab and pills for about 18 months. I lost a good bit of weight, but it was all muscle. I have bingo every fucken thing.
 
After seeing the consultant we've agreed it all depends on the 2nd op to see how the 1st op went to remove the bladder cancer. If all is good then we carry on to treat the prostate cancer if not then any treatment to clear the bladder cancer comes first and delay the RT for the prostate as they feel it'd be too much to do the 2 together.
Something to be thankful for, if they hadn't found the prostate cancer I wouldn't of had a Ct scan which found the aggressive bladder cancer.
 
It must vary Jeff. I was on 4 weeks 5 days per week, but some of the lads in the waiting area were on different treatments, some were on the table for longer as well. Mine was for 3 minutes each day
 
Well that was an interesting meet I'll get a letter the beginning of January tell me my first meet then two weeks later I'll start my treatment.I've opt the SABR treatment which is 5 treatments possible over 2 weeks as he said I'd need to rest between each treatment And no more hormone treatment roll on January :LOL::LOL:
 
Does that mean you'll stop taking like a tart, and be able to park again?
