Hello everyone.
New to this section having been diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer ( non curable ) which has already spread to my bones just over a month ago and met for the 1st time with Oncology this week.
Still really processing it all, i think I had expected from Oncology for them to throw every tool in the armoury at this and kick it as hard as they could, the prognosis was hormones and 6 sessions of radiology later on.
No pet-scan, no PSA since the original one done by my GP back in May/June.. when asked why the answer was ' it wont change your treatment'.
I think perhaps the realisation that no attempt to cure really stings.. more so when reading the other sections of this forum where so many processes and treatments are used in an attempt to cure.
What my personal objective now is, to get the pain under control to live life, rather than the constant waiting etc which has been going on for the past 6 months.
If anyone else here is walking this path i would love to hear from you.
