Any advice gratefully received!

When it comes to RT the best advice I can give is to make sure you follow the instructions of the radiologists to the letter, especially with regard to diet and drinking the water. It's important to have a full bladder when your treatment time comes but not to be wriggling on the table because you're bursting for a pee!

Thanks Seamus..,interesting times ahead! Advice well noted

Hi

I can't over emphasise adhering to the diet sheet they give you. I didn't and had a couple of glasses of wine and sprouts for Christmas Dinner- not funny!

Hi seadog, my diagnosis is T3,N1,M1b, Gleason 9, I'm on Enzlutamide and Decapepty injection. Just finished my radiotherapy, I had no problems or side effects with it, I hope everything goes well for you with your treatment.

Thanks Ulls, 

Good to know there are chances, however slight, of running through this without side effects.  Also interesting to note the drug alternatives. It’s not as if they sit you down and discuss the various drugs and their relative merits or disadvantages. Although in fairness, I do appreciate they are swamped under right now, and time is a precious commodity.
