No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making

I'm currently going through similar treatment for my prostate cancer which had spread to a lymph node and the seminal vesicles. I'm just starting my 3rd week of treatments-A total of 40 in all. So far I haven't experienced any side effects, although the doctor said I might start having a little diarrhea toward the end of the third week and to keep some Imodium around.
Since I'm a little ahead of you in the treatment stage, I'll try to keep you posted on any side effects that happen.
Thanks a lot for that. A bit reassaring to hear about experiences of someone in same position.
Whereabouts are you by the way? I am in Scotland myself.
I love travelling around and hope to still do some more at the weekends as the treatment is Mon - Frid.
limited I know but want to keep active)
Good luck Wendell
