Dear Friends I have been on hormone therapy for 2 1/2 months now. In recent days I have been experiencing some of the urinary symptoms I was suffering before I started - urgency and inability to hold. I am due for my next hormone injection in a few weeks. Have other people experienced a mild relapse as they got towards their next 3month injection.
Skippy - That's magic - I bet your anxiety has been banished now!!
It's great you have a plan and you know just where you are going - keep positive and we (You and Our Community) can beat this cancer into submission.
There's plenty of great advice here for when the Chemotherapy starts - but have a break and enjoy a few weeks off cancer and appointments.
Best wishes - Brian.
