Prostate Cancer and trouble sleeping. Thoughts?

I had, still have prostate cancer. I was given hormone therapy for 18 months (finished last Sept).

Every thing went well except now I am getting no sleep due to hot flushes and constant weeing during the night.

When I was on the therapy I was given Cypoterone and this worked but I now want my life back, so the Doctor has prescribed Nortriptyline for the flushes

Hi Echoanddipper,

Welcome to Cancer Chat. It sounds like you've spoken to the doctor about this, so hopefully the prescription will help a little. Do keep in touch with your doctor if not, or if you need any further support.

Otherwise, if others here have any similar experience or advice to share, then hopefully you'll get some more replies soon.

Wishing you all the best,

Ben
