Don’t know where to begin, my x husband diagnosed yesterday with metastatic prostate, in his bones and lymph nodes
Hi Misses o, welcome to the site, the more information you provide the better the response.
Like your X I have been diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer which has spread to my lymph nodes and bones, to give you an insight tap the mug by my name and my journey so far should be available.
All the best Ulls
Has he started on HT yet ? I have a similar diagnosis and have had alot of treatments in the last 6 months. It's a horrendous time for you all. This forum can be a very useful tool for information, just reach out. Take care
Regards

That's good, that should start to work soon hopefully. I am doing well now thank you, just recovering from the months and months of treatments and appointments. My body seems to of adjusted to most of the side effects and exercise does really help.

Hi
Not the best of news to be told about your husband, it’s like being hit by a train for you both, hormone therapy is always the first start to his treatment, bringing down his PSA and fighting the PC at the same time.
Have they mentioned what type of treatment will be on offer for him, there are now many out there, chemotherapy being the most aggressive, then there’s different types of tablets plus radiotherapy, he might not be curable but there’s plenty of medication that can be given to help him for many years, in my case five and a half and still fighting, so keep on the positive side, there will be good and bad days but doing what you normally do helps keep your mind from wandering.
Stay safe
Joe
