Radiotherapy so far

just on my way to the hospital for #15 radiotherapy session, only got 8 more to do after today, I’ve been feeling okay some days a bit tired and I’ve got a bit of watery diarrhoea, but on the whole I’m good, eating and sleeping well,and I’ve only got 1 more zoladex injection next month, it’s hard to believe that 2 years ago I had a random blood test, no symptoms at all and here I am still getting treatment for this horrible prostate cancer, suppose I’ve still got another 5 years of blood tests after this but I’m feeling good and positive, all the best from Hull, England
