Hello, I have posted on here before and got such great support, thank you. The latest with my husband is that the cancer has now spread to liver and triplet therapy will be started tomorrow (docetaxel chemo and darolutamide hormone tablet on top of the Zoladex hormone implant he has 12 weekly) The prognosis isn't good - have been told 12 months so we are in a state of shock at the moment but are being positive and have hope whilst he is strong enough to cope with treatment - he spent two weeks in hospital after getting septicaemia from prostate biopsy - so please ask for antibiotics if you are having this procedure as it is not the standard protocol now to give antibiotics in most hospitals. Would appreciate any advice /support from anyone going through this treatment. I think it will be a quiet Christmas in our household this year. Kind regards Liv88
