Bric the PCa diagnosis is bad enough without other sh*t going on. Try and take things day by day. If you need help Brian Millibob has already given you the MacMillan info, but you now have all of us behind you. Feel free to ask anything. Best wishes, David

Please remember that I am not medically trained and the above are my personal views.
we have endless sleepless sleeps since being diagnosed in March . Even with OH consultation on Thursday saying the Aberaterone & Prostap is working well as his PSA is fluctuating between undetectable & 0.1 , We are now onto 3 monthly consultations.
how we cope OH walks 10 miles a day albeit not currently due to a calf injury. He crashed last week and it was a combination of the leg injury , Hormone therapy and radiotherapy . The consultant explained that even without the leg injury he would be very fatigued whilst the RT continued to work .
He spends a lot of time in his “man cave” hut and just sticks the radio in and potters.
We try to get away for a 2 nite hotel break which makes life a bit more “normal” .
He was due to start a free 12 week course at our local council run gym to build up his upper body but it’s on hold until his leg is better.
We also go to our local Maggie Centre and find it very therapeutic as there is no judgement , they just listen and where they can signpost you to get answers .
Our GP offered us both something to help us to sleep but we declined. I must admit our GP is great and is fully supporting both of us.
Hope you can find a way to relax & destress as sometimes that’s worse than the physical illness .
Hi Bric, if you mean notifications, go to the top right hand corner of the page, you will see a lightning symbol, just click on it and they are there. You can also go to your homepage, just click on your user name to get there, and click on activity.
Getting out today for a walk is a great step (pardon the pun) in raising your spirits by doing something normal that everyone takes for granted. Keeping as fit as you can & having a positive outlook is half the battle.
you are right
