Hi got diagnosed on the 22nd July. 4+4 Gleason grade group 4 and T stage 4. I started on HT tablets for a couple of days they then upgraded me to injections. I had 2 together. I been fast tracked to Oncology 19th August to discuss Radiology treatment. Has anyone been fast tracked like this

  • I was fast tracked while being put on HT injections after two weeks.

    You don’t say how your Gleeson score was found, perhaps a biopsy, if so it does take a little while to get all the data for you to be dealing with. It’s all scary at the start so keep asking questions here and writing down questions for the clinicians in a list so you don’t forget to ask them something. But the waiting is the worst bit.

    you are in good hands here with lots of experience so ask away and don’t be shy, you’re as anonymous as you wish to be. And if you have a partner then they can find answers and support here too.

    Good luck.
