Hi Rainbowmolly,

It sounds like a lot to process - it may help to write down any questions you have, so that you have them ready to discuss at your next appointment. You can then also make a note of the answers.

My reply here will give your post a little boost, so a few more people should see it and hopefully you'll get some more replies.

If you'd like to talk things through with someone ahead of your next appointment, our nurses are available on freephone 0808 800 4040 - Monday-Friday, 9-5.

We are always here for support and I hope that the forum continues to be useful for you.

Wishing you all the best,

Hi 

I was diagnosed 3 years ago with advanced cancer.  I've had surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and ADT.  But I am still here and life is good.  And now my cancer is in remission and I am off all my drugs (at least for now).

When you get the diagnosis it is scary and life changing.  But all the treatment are designed so that you can get through it.  With T3b diagnosis there is a very good chance you can shake this monkey off your back.

Best of luck.
