"I think I'm experiencing symptoms"
We can talk with you about what’s happening. We’ll also suggest speaking to your GP if something needs to be looked at more closely.

"I'm embarrassed by my problem"
Because we’re not answering your questions face-to-face, you may find it easier to talk about it over the phone or online. That's what we're here for.
"What should I ask at my next doctor's appointment?"
We can help you prioritise the ‘what-to-ask questions’ so you leave your appointment with the information you need.
"I'm struggling with side effects"
We can talk with you about how you're feeling and provide practical tips, help and support.

"I feel lost, scared or low"
Prostate cancer can be overwhelming, and it may be useful to get things out. We're here to listen and help make sense of your situation.
"I'm struggling to support a loved one"
Supporting someone with cancer can be difficult. It’s understandable if you feel frustrated, frightened or unsure at times. You can talk to us about it.
"I've been told my cancer isn't curable. What can I expect?"
We can give emotional support and practical information about side effects of treatment or symptoms of your cancer, and the options available to you.
