chemo start date within 4 months rather than 3 months of HT start - opinions?

Hi Maxxy

I can't help with your question but noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list where it'll be more easily seen.

Wishing you all the best with whatever decision you make and, if it's to go away on holiday, I hope you have a lovely time.

Hi

Welcome to our ever increasing domain, chemotherapy can affect the person that has it in many ways, loss of hair, taste, super hot sweats, to name a few. Plus if you buy insurance which going to America you would have to, can cost a large amount of money. When your on chemo you can get a few things so insurance is a must. If he decides to have the chemo when you get back that’s all different, but I would check with the oncologist about a start date if you go away.

What was his numbers PSA, Gleason, stage ? PC is very slow to grow, in my case I wanted or my wife did throw everything and then some at it.

hope this helps a little

stay safe

Thanks 2 consultants have said do chemo on return so we will still go on holiday to celebrate his 60th birthday. I have to get top up insurance for him for any prostrate related health issue - so hope I can find that this week.
