Hello James

I'm sorry to hear that you have recently been told that you have a recurrence of prostate cancer. it's understandably a concerning time for you at the moment. 

We do have some information on our website about locally advanced prostate cancer that you may find helpful. I also wanted to tag another member eddiel in my reply as I know that Eddie is living with prostate cancer that has spread to his lymph nodes. If you click on his name you'll be able to read a little of his story but I'm sure he will pop along at some point to share his experience of hormone therapy with you. 

If you'd like to talk things through with one of our nurses at any point you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, information and support they can. 

Hopefully over the coming weeks and months as your treatment progresses the team will be able to offer you some reassurance. Do keep in touch James and let us know how you get on. 

Best wishes, 
Jenn
