Pain after starting Hormone Therapy

Good Morning AFLMF 

Honest answer - It may be  If it's only started at the same time as the Hormone Therapy then there must be a connection. Is this at the start of the Bicalutamide Tablets, as one of their side effects is swelling of the lower legs.

I would have a word with his CNS (Cancer Nurse Specialist) or Consultant for advice.

Best wishes - Brian.

Thank you

Hi AFLMF .

When you first start on hormone therapy tablets it can cause an initial rise in cancer cells which can result in increased pain and an increase in PSA. These tablets dampen down the increase that you would normally get if you went straight to injections/ implants. The pain should be short lived as the hormone therapy gets to work putting the cancer cells into hibernation.

Praying that the therapy works for husband.

Thank you
