H,
Prior to making my decision for PC treatment I was put onto HT. I asked the open surgery consultant who prescribed this treatment if this would effect any choice in future treatments and was told it wouldn't.
On my second visit to see the Robotic consultant, I booked in for surgery under him, however when I informed him that I had been on HT for some weeks he said it could make it ''Sticky''.
Has anyone had any experience of Robotic surgery following HT. I have been on HT (Bicalutamide) for 7 weeks now.
I do not want to under go surgery unless I know I am in tip top condition to have it. I will attempt to go back to the experts for clarification aswell
Many thanks.
Mark
