what’s the next step?
hi everyone. So I only managed zoladex for 4 months. To put it lightly they affected my mental wellbeing so much I hated myself on them. As well the severe joint pains and hair issues. I’m seeing my endo nurse tomorrow for a follow up. And I don’t really know what the next step is for me. I had my first

thought it befitting to share on World Cancer Day. the latest (yearly) PET/CT scan was 29 January. thankFULL it was another NEAD result; the initial dx was Oct 2011, and the mBC dx was July 2015. the aforementioned scan is eight years of mBC NEAD scans. and, after the scan we discussed stopping Ibrance

Zoladex Injection
Hi 😊 Please could anyone share their experiences with the zoladex injection? My gynae has suggested going on it for 6 months with the HRT pill, to help with endo symptoms. I know there can be a lot of bad side affects to taking this and I’ve read about a few bad experiences already, but I’d anyone

Zoladex side effects?
Hi, I've been taking Zoladex since October and have been having quite a few side effects recently. Aside from the more medical ones I've been struggling emotionally by not feeling like myself. Has anyone got any tips for that side of things? Also wanted to ask if people have any tips for the beauty side

Addback HRT or Antidepressants?
Hi, I'm currently on zoladex week 3 of my first injection. I'm on addback HRT of estrogen gel 2 pumps per day and body identical utrogestan progesterone- one per day. Mentally I'm pretty good. I've not had any side effects yet and believe thus is due to the HRT and perhaps the fact that it hasn't totally

How to monitor PCa after you stop ADT?
I've been on Zoladex implants for coming up to 4 years in February. I plan to stop ADT next time when it's due, as my PSA is always "undetectable" and it's been 4 years of physical and mental torment for me (the side effects). I think that enough is enough now. Does anyone have advice on the best ways

how to take zoladex
hi everyone, I’m just a little anxious as I had my first Zoladex injection recently and my GP did not fill me with much confidence, he looked at my notes to find out the dosage and gave me the injection in my arm. I queried this as everything I’ve read said it went in the abdomen. He read the instruction
