Hi 

just update on my brother . He has started on the Triplet Therapy today first chemo done and started  the Daralutamide ( please excuse my spelling ) he’s also on steroids . My brother said he feels so much better now that he’s on this treatment path we all do . He looks amazing keeping very fit we know he’s probally to expect side effects come day 3 reading everyone else’s chemo journeys but at least he’s lot more possitive now . Once again big thank you to everyone here who has helped us as a family so much my brother is made up I’m on this site he would come on himself but he’s partly sighted so he would struggle so he gets me to ask all the questions . He is very grateful for all the brilliant advice we all are 

thank you

  • Hello  

    It's been a tough old ride for you and your brother since you joined us - but he's getting there now. Diagnosis sorted, treatment path sorted - and treatment started. I wish you both well moving forward and that he continues without many side effects.

    Best wishes - Brian.
