In this episode I describe my first two radiotheraphy sessions, and the differences in preparing for that versus chemo.

I also reveal how I'm still suffering withdrawal effects from the chemo drugs, and what's in the diary for this coming week.

In this episode I discuss the changes since the chemo toxin has finally left my system, and how steroid withdrawal has caused problems. I also talk about my pre-assessment radiotherapy appointment ready for the cycle starting next week.

In this episode I reflect on my birthday this week, a milestone I didn't think I'd reach when first diagnosed last October, and also my meeting this morning with my consultant t discuss the results of my CT scan last week to see how effective the 18 week chemo treatment has been.

...and lots of it.

In this episode I explain how urinating goes hand in hand with prostate cancer (sometimes literally), from being an earlier indicator that something may be wrong, to causing issues in your everyday life.

I offer hints and tips from my own journey, and what you can do to make things as easy and comfortable for yourself as possible.

This episode discusses my feelings on finishing the 18 week chemotherapy treatment, how my body (and mental wellbeing) have affected, and my thoughts about the future.

In this episode I welcome special guest Gary Lamb and discuss his own prostate cancer journey, during which he elected to undergo radical prostatectomy - a procedure to remove the entire prostate gland.

In this episode I talk about the emotional reaction to receiving my final chemotherapy infusion, and how the plan for radiotherapy set for May and June won't be finalised until the results are known of my forthcoming CT scan.

I also talk about the interview I recorded for UHCW's new podcast Patients Stories, and the local prostate cancer awareness initiative I'm working on here in Coventry.

Happy Easter!

In this episode I reveal some of the plans for a new awareness initiative which I've set up for people affected by prostate cancer here in Coventry. This podcast will be part of that, along with fun events such as quizzes, comedy nights, and to start with a Brave the Shave fundraising challenge.

I also discuss my thoughts ahead of my final chemo infusion, and the fact that my finger and toenails are in danger of coming off. Fingers crossed - very gently!
