Just dont give up hope and always try to stay positive
I found the hot flushes to be the worst part especially at night where it would wake me up on the hour every hour. I would then have to take my blanket off for a few minutes and then i would get to cold. This was repeated every tiring night due to me being treated with hormone injections
There are no tips i can give except say things will get better as time goes on
I am on hormone treatment as they thought i was stage t3b but was downgraded to t2c. This was the hard bit for me the loss of my sex drive and putting on weight. I then had to drive for radiothearapy clocking up two and a half thhousand miles in four weeks due to the distance from my house to the hospital. I was pretty tired but luckily could share the driving with my wife.
Not sure
I thought radiotherapy would be less intrusive and the surgeon said he would not do any nerve sparing so i went along with radiotherapy. If i would have had the surgery it would have given me a definitive answer about my staging and i would now be hormone free. So i would think about it more now to be honest
