They do blood work before treatment and a special scan the day after treatment. In-between treatments at the 3 week mark they want blood work done but you can have that done locally and fax it to them. I’ve had some increased fatigue with it a little nausea for a week or so after.

They have not done my PSMA scan for eligibility yet and clinical trial closing soon They say branch of trial is random If chemo I would stay local hospital and not do trial. I see you can travel 3 days after and if flying must notify TFSA
Did they talk survival with you and what was said?
