Hi Jimmy.

A warm welcome from a wife whose husband was diagnosed with stage 5 prostate cancer almost 4 years ago and hubby is still going strong. It is a difficult time for you at the moment learning all the terminology and treatment options. Hopefully we can help answer your questions and reassure you that life goes on and what is more you can have a good quality of life. As Eddie has said, if you can give us a little more information it will help to provide you with more targeted advice.

Hi JimmyS24.

Good evening it's great to have you on board but I am very sorry that it's under these circumstances.

Yes I am also in the "stage 4 club" I was diagnosed this time last year with a PSA off 1000+ "wow" 

But after receiving Hormone Therapy (tablets and injections) my PSA is now 0.9 "shocking"

I am 58 years young and I feel a million dollars currently & I am still as active as I have ever been even though I have also suffered a Stroke in my life time "32 years old"

Please come back to me if there's anything that I can help you with????
