After 4 attempts to map my prostate cancer for radiotherapy, I successfully negotiated my first radiotherapy session today. Just 19 more to go. There was some good news. I was originally listed for four areas of radiotherapy, two cancer sites in the prostate itself and two adjacent lymph nodes as a precaution, but after a review of recent scans, the treatment will be confined to just the two prostate sites. This was because the cancers are high in the prostate and there is no indication of any metastasizing spread. Pleased!
Good Morning MountPeter
Great news on two fronts - first you have started Radiotherapy and second no "walkabout" by the nasty cancer cells. I do have a vision now in my head after reading Alwayshope's description of the cancer cells
Just think of all those cancer cells screaming as they die
A great quote first thing in a morning before breakfast!
I hope you sail through the remaining 19 fractions.
Best wishes - Brian.
