I have my last HT injection in three months, maybe it will be extended, I decided late last year, when HT ends that will be the end of my treatment, This is not a goodbye, Eddie.

  • Hello   

    I know of your diagnosis and things aren't the best for you - I am aware of the slight rise in your PSA. If there are no side effects of the HT treatment - why not keep going on it - it's only a small PSA rise and it's probably still working - you know there are other factors that can affect a PSA reading.

    You know we are all here for you if you need anything - if you need any extra support just let me know.

    Best wishes - Brian.

  • Hello Eddie, my husband had what was supposed to be his last 3 monthly injection this week. I say ‘supposed to be’ because, of course, it all depends on the PSA. It’s a funny feeling! I feel as if we are in a limbo! Is it the end of treatment or is there more bad news coming down the line? Do we dare celebrate and, if so, when? Now? After 3 months when the next injection would be due? After 5 years and , hopefully, all clear?  I hope both you and he will be able to continue controlling this darned PC! Best of luck x
