Good news following mediastinal lymph node query

I thought I would post some good news. Husband's latest CT scan (regular scan) shows the mediastinal lymphadenopathy 'resolved' and nothing new showed up. PSA at 1. He has no pain, just the awful mood swings/depression from the ADT, so lots to be thankful for. And ..... there is a covid vaccine on the horizon, so we might be able to live a little more adventurously next year! Continuing on the decapeptyl, Abiraterone/pred. Regards all.

often it doesn’t seem like there is much good news here , so it’s particularly good to hear that you guys are nicely stable and pain free. Hanging in there . and .... how good is it that your husband has such an involved , caring and concerned wife .....so knowledgeable and seriously involved in his care and quality of life. He’s a doubly lucky guy . The real hero’s are the wives that love and support us APCa guys through these unprecedented EOL times. Wives like you.

Just say’in 🌻🌼🌸🦋🌈❤️❤️

Love each other . I too went through many a mood swing and awful depression ... it was brutal for my wife to witness and live with . APC hits us in every fashion .. the lack of male hormones is the culprit ,a strong foe .. I don’t function well with t .. I’ve gotten much better with time on my bad moods . I had three years of madness ,still I have my moments . I hope that you two can ride some good news and have a better next year . Keep hope alive . He can come out of those dark moods . No pain? Work out! Exercise helps all . Hang in there . I think that he’ll get better .
