A journey that started in mid February this year resulting in myself ringing the bell in my local cancer hospital today 

Feeling great except for bladder and bowel which will hopefully  settle down in coming days 

In new year I need to get back on a secondary treatment not apalutamide which gave me a very serious rash ,so had to stop taking it mid november 

Zoladex 3 monthly implant 2 1 25    PSA 8 1 25 

As I am stage four because of bone met I am hoping the zapping as got me from a HOSPITAL treatable to curable path Pray 

But that is a good way ahead so I wish you all a great Christmas and new year and all those people especially in diagnosis situation ,mine was a nightmare, STAY STRONG you WILL get there 

ADIOS AMIGOS

    Onward and Upwards, have a great break, the bowels and bladder will settle down.
