This forum is for the discussion of anything to do with Prostate Cancer. There are only four rules:
No fundraisers, no commercials (although it is OK to recommend choices of treatment or medical people based on your personal research; invitations to participate in third-party surveys are also acceptable, provided there is no compensation to YANA);
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
Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.

Thank you for your response , it has today been confirmed it has spread to the skull & they have suspended chemo whilst they do 5 days radiotherapy, noy my dad didnt ask & neither did i as he obviously doesnt want to know but in anydodys opinion will they start the chemo again do you think ? my dad is coping with it very well tired for a few days after but then back to normal, considering how widespread it is , he is in little pain with the morphine, still very mobile, even mowing the lawn last week & eating quite well, I know that we are not in a good situation & have read the guidelines on the internet which recommend stopping the chemo if there are signs of progression which there obviously are but considering how 'well' he is would they take that into account ??
Any replies will be helpful even if only your thoughts/experiences
