How long hormone treatment for prostate cancer should continue vs side effects
Hi Negita, I'm at a similar stage as yourself. Diagnosed 14 months ago , 28 shots on the Linac, 5 shots of hormone. I suffered a major reaction to the treatment at around the 22 Linac shots which hospitalised me and since finishing the full course have been on a steady course of regaining strength and health. I would not say I have any issues that are not manageable or restricting my lifestyle however there have been and are side effects as follows: Hormone treatment hot flushes are crazy in a hot climate and when they occur it feels like my head is boiling. I would not say it has altered my moods and certainly not led to depression. Decreased libido but not completely destroyed and I didn't put on any weight. Benefits are I am now always correct when I have a discussion with the wife. Before diagnosis and treatment I was visiting the bathroom 3 times a night and this is still the case. It's a combination of that and age that leaves me tired in a morning. Personally I believe most of my lethargy can also be put down to age, I'm 'only' 71 but if you're active at 80 then I would take that as a bonus. My PSA is <0.08 and I will continue with the hormone injections for another 9 months (2 years in total). I understand once they finish my PSA may increase. Obviously staying in the UK will allow you treatment for free, however I opted to pay and have all my treatment in Thailand (Siriraj Bangkok). Although this is a public hospital the treatment and service has been excellent, and I hate to say this calm and civilised compared to some of the situations I experienced in the UK. -

Two Schoolgirls Injured After Truck Tyre Breaks Loose and Hits Motorcycle
Thai's can, just as people can in any other nation... Thai's already have the skill set and do testing throughout many industries... International haulage companies do their own in-house testing (and driver monitoring etc), then there are the skilled labor forces of the oil industry, aircraft industry etc... IMO - there is not a shortage in skilled labor - there are just fundamental flaws in attitudes towards safety on a 'state' level.... As you pointed out, 'they'..... (I'm assuming you DLT testers) are not taught to inspect correctly, lack the tools and manpower because authorities and those in positions of responsibility have been 'getting away' with being slack, taking bribes etc for generations... This is systemic and endemic corruption tie in with a firm culture of apathy and lack of proactiveness.... ... Until people in positions of responsibility are held accountable - there will be little change. -
