Final chemo session today. Rang the bell and got the certificate!

 

Now the hard part.....

 

Have to make the decision faced by so many of us as to what to do next. The ATLANTA trial offers me the possibility of prostatectomy or curative dose RT. Plus also could possibly have SABR to any metastatic bone deposit. Hopefully will get new scans soon to help with making the decision.

It’s great to hear you have completed your chemo sessions.  Good luck with results of your scan and with the next part of your journey.

Well done finishing chemotherapy. You will be able to make an informed decision on the next steps once the scans have been done. All the best going forward.

RT and Sabre for the Rib and Pelvis? Sounds like the way to go.

SABR, if necessary,  will be  offered which ever way I decide to go. One problem is that, due to COVID, the only centre for the ATLANTA trial open to me was Imperial College. As I live Gloucestershire that presents some logistic problems for 20 fractions of RT so a 2-3 day stay would certainly be easier. However, at the moment, I think best to make the decision based on medical grounds and work out the logistics once that decision has been made.
