Hi, My husband was diagnosed this summer with aggressive prostate cancer which may have spread to his spine. This is not definitive as consultant wanted to do another scan, My husband has decided that he does not want to go through hormone/radiation treatment and has informed the hospital of this decision. He did not have a further scan to confirm/dismiss bone cancer I Have accepted his decision and i am here to support in any way i can. HOWEVER, he does not want anyone to know of his diagnosis and has made me promise not to let anyone know - I understand his reasons, but i need to offload and i need to know who/where i can turn to when his health deteriorates and ensure that he gets any pain meds help that he needs when the time comes. Has anyone else been in this position and could possibly signpost me to the people/services that i can approach? At the moment i am coping (I know i am not the one with the diagnosis) I also know that i will need help to enable him to have the best possible outcome. Thank you for listening to my ramble, Actually feels good "telling someone"
