How this treatment impacted my life the most

The treatments have made a huge difference as it is controlling my cancer which is all that I can ask for in that it was diagnosed as a small uptake in my Pelvis but recent full body Bone scan and CTC Scans showed no convincing evidence of bone diseases which is an amazing result.

If I had to do it all over again, would I choose the same treatment?

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

Taking hormone tablets took a little getting used to, however, I personally have not found the treatment to be a problem at all.
