Hi thanx for your reply I was diagnosed in 2012 been on hormone therapy and also had chemo as part of the stampede trial now my cancer has spread and been given 3 options two are trials and the third radium injections have to decide by end of this week ...
HI Wolfman60
You deserve other options, such as bicalutamide plus lupron (prostap) , or jusr bicalutamide.
For extremely advanced cancer there is also abiraterone plus lupron (prostap) and prednisone. That is what I am on right now.
What are the trials based on??
and why are you bbeing offered the radium? are you in extreme pain ? That is for when you are in unbearable pain.
I hope you get your treatment set up best .
sending you healing thoughts from across the pond (i am in the usa) -
