Sweating

Hi there, 

I did once I started treatment (Enzalutamide), I used to have to carry a towel around, not pleasant. 

Then I had acupuncture at the hospital and that really helped. 

Now I self-needle when I need to. 

All the best to you with your treatment,

David 

Sweating is one thing I had never thought about.  It could tie in with the shock of being diagnosed with PC.  I hope you generated a big discussion in the group.  

It's a question I will be asking men I know with PC.

I remember feelings of panic, sadness, the I inevitable "Why me?"

I have kept a diary since the day I was diagnosed (29th May 2021), I'm going to go through them to see if I had anything down on sweating.

Maybe if or when you start on hormones, the sweating will stop.  Then it's the Hot Flushes you might get.  They take a bit getting used to.

One more thing, your mind does play tricks on you.  I know mine did (and still does).

Hi Steve, thanks for reply. It could be the shock of being diagnosed and defo happening as partner has commented. I have night sweats also. I'm going down the removal route rather than RT. Wtg for op date. (6-8 weeks quoted 2 weeks ago). Let's see what side affects I end up with?
