Prostate Cancer Metastasis

2017-10-05 07:09:17
Oncologists advised to continue Tabi tablets for a longer period since PSA report is normal now(0.63) after taking this tablets since 3 months and operation of testicles. Right now, no health problems except slight pain while sitting. So, since my age is 75, Oncologists advised not to undergo Chemotherapy or Radiotherapy. My question is can Tabi tablets be taken for longer period ?

Consult a oncologist. Age is not a criteria for radiotherapy. Newer techniques has negligible side effects. Tabi or hormonal therapy duration depend on stage.

Consult radiation oncologist.
