Hi my husband was diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer which had spread. He has had radiotherapy and now is having three years of hormone treatment. It is apparently an unusual kind of treatment and he is having such awful side effects. Between worrying about him and wanting to scream at the lack of care he is getting I think I am going mad. You can’t get an appointment with the GP. Sometimes the pain in his whole body is so bad he just groans but still he doesn’t demand to see someone about it. We haven’t seen an oncologist for a year and had just a few phone calls ticking boxes but obviously the doctor had not studied his notes. I would like to cause a fuss to demand help but he won’t do that and it is soo hard living with him these days. We seem to rub each other up the wrong way all the time. Our children all live abroad and don’t understand what is going on so I feel very alone with this fight.
