saw my urologist last week, don't have to come back for 12 months, after 15 months, no more Zoladex, yay!
he says I have a 60-80% chance of a cure, it takes 12-18 months for everything to wash clear and then we'll see what the psa is and if it is rising. If it does I may be in the 40-20% category, gloom.
Is this how it goes??
Seems you're still looking for the road map in this Strange Place we inhabit. There isn't one. No one can say who'll arrive at their destination in one piece, but if your doctor tells you that you have a 60-80% chance rejoice in that!!
But it'll go the way it goes and we all have to live with that kind of uncertainty. The important thing is to accentuate the positive - and there is ALWAYS a positive, be it ever so small at times.
