I know you can get free prescriptions when you are being treated for cancer, but can you get them after a prostatectomy when the cancer should be "cured"?
Hi Sprogman welcome to the forum. Im not sure about the answer to your question but maybe the folks at Macmillan may know so I'm wondering if you might like to give them a call on 08088080000 and see if they can shed some light for you.
I am wondering the same Andrew, but my view would be that prescriptions will remain free, at least for as long as we have treatment relating to PCa.
I have also had surgery and, even in the event my cancer is ever deemed “cured”, there are still the side effects of the surgery to consider. The obvious example would be any treatment for ED, which should be available to us on prescription. Such treatment in my view is part of ongoing cancer treatment as the issue will be a direct result of surgery.
