    Congratulations to your hubby completing the RT, now relax on your upcoming holidays, and sail through the checkup in November. All went well for me, and now RT 18 months behind me, and on yearly checkup with oncologist (next due April 2016).

    Hello I am due for 37 radio therapy treatments starting at Preston on the 1st of October , my PC is stage T3b I am 62 years old,and I am due for a 3 month injection of Leuporelin HT which I am already on,the only side effects I seem to be getting is I become extremely tired in the afternoon upon which I go to bed,my doctors have stated that they aim to cure the cancer with RT&HT therapy,I was sceptical at first and feared the worst (cancer spreading etc,etc) any one got any thoughts on the prognosis of my particular case?Thanks in advance for any replies,best regards Peter T.

      Hi Peter

      By now, you will be 1/3rd of your way through your RT.
