Comment from user:

I suffer from Ca Prostate (Metastatic) from February

2006. I would like to know more about it.

Sorry to read of your position. Many of the men on

this List have early stage prostate cancer, so much of the discussion is on

topics that may not be of much help to you. There are however Mailing Lists

where the focus is on advanced prostate cancer and hormone therapies and I know

that the men on those sites will help you all they can. If you have not used a

Mailing List before you might find it helpful to go to http://www.yananow.net/FAQmailinglist.htm ;

if you know about Lists and Forums then you might join http://www.prostatepointers.org/mailman/listinfo/chb

a List where men discuss hormone blockade options and http://www.groups.prostate-help.org/grsubsc.htm where

you will see that there is a specific List for men with Advanced Disease.

Below are some links for men with advanced disease

you might find helpful:

This is an excellent handbook that you can order free of charge entitled Living with Advanced Prostate Cancer When PSA

Rises During Hormone Therapy

One of the US-TOO sites with excellent advice on pain management

Details of a chemotherapy treatment with Taxotere that has proved a useful

management tool

All the best,

As a physician, I am painfully aware that

most of the decisions we make with regard to prostate cancer are made with

inadequate data: Dr
