Infection and hormone therapy.

I have been on the Prostap and Apalutamide for many months with no such side effects.

Sounds more like a separate issue completely to me but I suppose we all look to associate any malady with our medication and diagnosis.

Best to get back to the gap I think.

Good morning Jewelse2b714 . I’m sure your GP understands that blood clots in the lungs are known to be associated with cancer (there’s a notice in my hospital which says it can affect up to 1 in 5 people).

I’m G9 and was one of those just over a year ago. I’d had a sharp pain towards the side of my back a few times over a few days. Then very uncomfortable (sweat dripping off my nose) pain in my side / back for maybe an hour in the night, only very shallow breaths possible when breathing in and I coughed up a small amount of blood. Next day my GP sent me straight to hospital and, after a CT, a pulmonary embolism was diagnosed. I was started on anti-coagulants there and then. No issues since. Might be worth running a possible PE past 111 or your GP as well?

I also have a history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, 5 known instances needling treatment over maybe the last 15 years, which my oncologist thought could be involved.
