    Hi BrianV,

    Sorry to hear about your diagnosis, hopefully the chemo will kick your Prostate cancer in the u know what. I would assume your cancer has spread outside of your Prostate, to what other point(s) of your body has it spread? You said you were on cancer pills, what is the name of that medication? What was your Gleason score? With more information maybe we can share some of our experiences to help you.

    Hi Brian,

    I’m sorry that you find yourself in this predicament. Where are you treating? Is it a Cancer Center of Excellence? You must keep up hope. Modern medicine has many tricks up its sleeve to keep the cancer at bay for many years. Let us know more details, age, results of scans, proposed treatments, and we will be happy to give support.
