Thank you so much for all your birthday wishes.
Met with Jamie last night, all good news http://community.prostatecanceruk.org/editors/tiny_mce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-smile.gif PSA <0.01 (that's two years now) ALP 38 Bone scan, no progression, CT scan, no soft tissue involvement.
For those that went to MOS, the question about why he put me on early chemo, that he couldn't answer because of patient confidentiality.
He has had only a couple of patients with very low secreting PSA and with extensive mets, both of them was hormone resistant from the start and both went to soft tissue, he also found similar patterns with other patients be treated by other doctors with similar diagnosis.
So rather than start me on HT and wait to see if i was resistant he chose to go straight to Chemo especially as i had mets at the base of my skull.
As this was two and a half years ago before any trial data was available,he still rates it as one of the best decisions he has made. and me too http://community.prostatecanceruk.org/editors/tiny_mce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-smile.gif
Best wishes to all
