Hi Guys
Im a newbie and yesterday my partner was diagnosed with prostate cancer which is aggressive and in most of his bones
Has anyone else had similar? He’s just started hormone therapy to help pain and stop progression I believe
Hope you guys are all ok x
Hi Mistymoon1 and welcome to you and your partner to the Online Community. I just dropped by and noticed you've not had a reply as yet so hopefully the members will be along soon to chat. I'm so sorry to read about your partner's diagnosis. Have you asked the question in the Prostate Cancer group as well? Perhaps someone there will be able to chat.
It’s always helpful to others if you write a little something (or a lot) about yourself and your journey to date. You can enter it into your profile (click on your username and select “Profile”) It’s helpful to other members with a similar diagnosis who can then hopefully answer your questions. It also means that you don't have to keep writing the same thing over and over. You can amend or update it at any time.
To find more information covering diagnosis and treatments there are pages covering most types of cancers which can be found on our Online Information and Support Section.
Macmillan Support Services also offer lots of information, support, financial guidance or just someone to listen. It’s free to call 0808 808 0000. Most services are available 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week.

Hello misty, so sorry to hear of your husband's diagnosis. If you check my bio I have a detailed treatment plan of mine so far which may be interesting to you. Any questions please ask or message me. Hormone therapy can be really effective, best of luck x
