Hi.

My husband also has stage 4 prostate cancer that has spread to seminal vestibules. He's had 2 hormone injections and is having radiotherapy for prostate and for surrounding lymph nodes. 

He's also suffering fatigue and now some bladder and bowel irritation from radiotherapy. 

You're not alone lovely. It's hard sometimes to realise that. Hope you're okay and everything progressing well. 

If you want to private message me please do.x

Thankyou for the reply, its nice to think im not alone in this,my 85 year old dad lives with me too,and he has many health problems.

My husband starts his radiotherapy in four weeks, he is 57 nearly ,do you mind me asking how old your husband is?,doesn't really matter as all ages its just unfair,it would be nice to keep in touch, does your husband have anyone to talk to,as my husband i know would message him as they would not feel alone ,

Hi would he message my husband? X

Hello. 

My husband was diagnosed at 60 years old with high risk, Gleason 9 prostate cancer in 2012. The prostate was radiated and he was put on androgen deprivation and hormone tablets. Although the cancer returned in 2020, he has been treated with more potent ADT drugs and has only now reached the stage of starting chemotherapy. 

So, that’s been 13 years so far with a high risk cancer. We are hoping for many more to come. 

Never give up hope. Treatments are improving rapidly in this area and there are many years yet for you both to share together.

We found that a healthy and balanced mediteranean diet with exercise - now 74 and so regular short walks help with fatigue - have both helped him to stay as physically strong as possible.
