Hello I’m new to this group but not to cancer. My story stared over 8 years ago at the age of 69. Diagnosed with a psa of 205 and a Gleason score of 9 with spread to lower back a rib and seminal gland. I was offered a place on the stampede trial. I accepted and was randomly selected for the Arbraterone and prednisolone leg, together with the standard zolodex then prostap injection. Apart from the usual of side effects I’ve done pretty well. However over the last year or I’m increasingly suffering from under skin bleeding on my arms, the slightest knock and a purple bleed mark appears. I’m guessing that’s due to long term affect of the pred. My question is does anyone else in the group suffer a similar thing. It’s not painful but a bit concerning about where it might lead to.
Thanks for having me in the group.
