Hi guys

Little update...had consultation and 6th infusion of cabizitaxel over the last few days,consultation was mixed result's,in a nutshell it could be better but it could be worse,will monitor and see what the next scans and x-rays say in 8 werks.Gearing up for the next few days with side effects from chemo,off to local hospital today for pre-assesment on kidney stent will be a nice change to travel for 20mins rather than over 3 hrs.

Take care all and stay strong 💪

Hi Phil. Sorry to hear things aren’t going exactly to plan. Hopefully the scans and x-rays will show some improvement. Seems like ages to wait for 8 weeks. 

Good luck with the stent today. Hope that all goes well. 

Spoke to one of my team yesterday and she said it’s good my PSA has come down to 54 from 56. Must admit last time I heard it was 48. But it’s bouncing around that level. Anyway she said all good for the next radium in 2 weeks.

Thinking of you buddy . Everything crossed for you …👍

Take care

All the very best, Phil - hope the chemo has had a positive effect and it doesn't hit you too hard over the next few days.

Hi all

Little update.....7th cycle of Cabizitaxel given yesterday,lower back pain seems to have eased a little so hopefully the drug is working,should have my latest PSA results soon so will post on my next update,woke up this morning like I've been lying under a sunbed all night with my Rosie cheeks so side effects are as expected.

Only doing 20mins on static bike in the velodrome,may have attempted the 30 miler on me e/bike but getting that upto glasgow would have been challenging.

Phil you're a glutton for punishment, traveling a distance for chemo and now just to cap it off doing 20 miles on a static bike 'respect' talk about using every day to its limit, I'm tired just thinking about it. One more thing if you want a donation just drop me a link, take care and keep strong

Well impressed Phil. As mentioned slip us the link to the donation page. 

That’s a fair old journey up to Glasgow. Hope it all goes to plan. Be very cool to ride the static bike inside the velodrome. I’ve been to the last session of a six day event at the London Velodrome a few years ago and it was a magic event. You can feel the energy bouncing round in there. Music from Ministery of Sound 🚲 🎶 … 

I’m looking at getting Chris’ book for a read. I’ve read Kevin Webbers book and it was an interesting read. 

Take care

Phil
