Sorry not heard of this and not sure I have ever heard this mentioned on this site in the years I have been on here. Hope everything goes as well as it can for your Dad and you.
Hello Tarie
Am sorry to see that Dad has been diagnosed with prostate cancer that has spread to his lymph nodes. Hopefully Dad will be able to discuss with his doctors about different treatment now that he needs to stop his hormone treatment.
I have found some information about haemochromatosis in case that is helpful.
Haemochromatosis - NHS (www.nhs.uk)
Hope this helps
