Jane. Your husband is a couple of years younger than me and I found after surgery and ADT and Erleada and my doctor advising me that my life expectancy was just a few years that I was depressed, slept poorly etc. I told my gp that I was depressed and he prescribed trazodone 50mg, for sleep and depression. I found that it made me too tired during the day and I cut the pills in half. That helped me. Also I walk some in my neighborhood with my Apple ear plugs in listening to Paul Simon music and that helps too. Returning to being good is a long shot, but this routine has helped me. Best of luck to you and your husband. We all hope to exceed our prognosis.

Hi,
Thank you for your feedback. We went to the oncologist, and he prescribed Remeron. At first he was reluctant to take it, because he is not one to take any medication. especially antidepressants. However, he agreed to take it. On our next visit, the oncologist will reevaluate him and consider decreasing the dosage. My husband recognizes this is not his behavior and keeps apologizing for it. Hopefully, this will help him deal with his anxiety and fear. I will keep encouraging him to walk!! Best of luck to you, as well.
