Hello everybody,This is all new to me. I have recently had a diagnosis of Prostate Cancer with a Gleason score of 9. As you will all imagine this came as a shock however after all sorts of scans it was confirmed this week that it is localized in the prostate and not spread. Phew! I have just started hormone treatment with a view to having radiotherapy in the new year. I would love to hear the experiences of other of this course of treatment and how it has affected them- tiredness, emotions,muscle mass and body stuff.
Hello Grump the Daddy A warm welcome to the online Community
The community is divided up into forums or chat rooms which are cancer specific and in view of your diagnosis I would advise you to join the Prostate cancer forum . To do this just click on the link I have provided and once the page opens up, click on "join" at the bottom of the page on the black banner. You will be able to then introduce yourself to the Community by either copying and paste or reposting the original post in the "New to the Community" section.
You will receive a warm welcome from the Community members - I should know I am one of them and also a Gleason 9 on hormone therapy and radiotherapy. I look forward to meeting you later in the Prostate forum.
Best wishes - Brian.
