Saw oncologist yesterday for 6 monthly meeting. All positive and confident that treatment is effective - dramatic drop in PSA and maintaining at 0.01 is best sign - I will bag that for now. See profile for journey to date.

Best wishes - Brian.

Textbook treatment and results so far …. Once things settle down with plenty of undetectable PSA readings, you might want to ask about reducing the duration of hormone therapy. AW
That would be good, 10 months of HT from initial diagnosis and 8 months of Abiraterone so far with manageable side effects (increasingly unwelcome) would be good to get to the end of sooner. Thanks for that, made my morning brighter !
