Starting Prostap

I was diagnosed with PC just after Christmas and have had biopsy (Gleason 4:3) and PSMA PET scan showing it has metasticised into ribs and pelvis.

I have been on Bicalutamide for 14 days and have first Prostap injection tomorrow. No side effects at all to date. What have people found with Prostap? I fear I will get side effects from this?

Any help/thoughts welcomed.

Of course there will be side effects, but you can treat some of the more annoying ones.
