Prostate cancer survivor

Hi, I called this survivor as I am in remission. Having had a radical prostatectomy with radio therapy a few years later and now on hormone therapy! Apalutamide,Decapeptyl and a low dose of Provera. 
I’m now 9 years from full diagnosis and still fairly active,I’m 78, so not too bad really, I do get hot flushes about every 49 minutes and currently am being treated for swollen ankles, which is improving daily. 
so that’s me, I hope that I can get some help for any future issues I may have. 

regards to all.
