Great news Paul and such a relief for you.
Sorry to hear about Mr UTI, and I hope you get to show the unwelcome visitor the door very soon.
Best Wishes for your health and the cricket!!

Thanks for all the best wishes, much appreciated. I am now home after a brilliant victory for Yorkshire today as good a tonic as any HT! I think as we do on this merry go round turned a little corner and if the pain goes fully, which it seems it is doing, then I can zap Mr UTI and try and get some energy back. The RT + HT took some hold and my fatigue has been marked. But I felt at the cricket I was beginning to get back some energy though it is one thing to watch cricket, another to work but I am back in work tomorrow so will soon find out.

Lucy for Julie's benefit, is Brian's friend as I call my oncologist Dr. I am sure Brian charms all his consultants! For my part I would not know how to deal with any advances as my radar (I.e. Libido) does not fire at all anymore. It makes me much calmer anyway.

Happy, happy, happy to come home and see that you have managed another appointment without intervention from myself or Mo. I shall pack away the knives on the basis that these oncos seem to be pretty good :-)

After the ashes performance and the Yorkshire boys in the squad doing so well you must be buzzing ... as Lyn said we can put the knives away for now we will keep them sharp just in case. Xxx

So oncologist's appointment today which went very smoothly indeed. PSA still stable at 24, a few points lower but showing a stable reading in the mid twenties since March time. My leg is almost free of pain now and certainly causes me no real problems. RT appears to have worked well. Still taking ibruprophen for some pain in both thighs but this is controlled well by that medication. Otherwise apart from the usual tiredness and fatigue it was an unproblematic appointment and another three months of living to get into before I go back again. So no enzo needed yet continue on prostap and casodex.

So two more trips to Hong Kong before Xmas and hopefully nothing else will trip me up!

I am so happy that everything seems to be stable, normal and unproblematic. Two more trips to Hong Kong is great news, Back In June I was worried that you would struggle getting out there and being mobile. The RT has clearly done a great job.
As Si says we really ought to try and get together before Xmas if we can. It seems a very long time since we had the last Newark do! A few of us can't make the flyer this year.
all the very best

Thanks both and you can call me Paul Si as long as no one is near! Newark drinks and/or curry would be great. I am at home until 23rd October and back by 4th Nov until about 27th Nov, so if anything fits let me know, will miss flyer too as in HK until 14th December.

Take care
