That is sounding like good news. Usual approach now is that the multi disciplinary team (Mdt) look at all the data and then decide on the best treatment. Quite often they can rule some out but can't decide of the ones which are left, which one is best for you. This means they offer you the choice!

Gaz,

Glad to see your Bone scan was clear.  I was diagnosed at the end of May this year, my Bone scan also came back clear.

It does feel good to hear a piece of positive news.

Been on Hormones for 6 months, Radiation treatment to start early October,so I am still new to all of this.

Finally got a date for Radiotherapy pre assessment ( think that’s the right description). 6th January it all starts after a 2 month delay… since my last update I’ve been trying to keep life normal… not been easy. Keep fighting chaps!
