Hi Janet,

 

I am sorry to hear that your husband's cancer appears to have returned. There is alot of information in the Prostate site here at Health Central. Click here to go there. Online sites are wonderful resources for getting the information you need to ask all the right questions, but they can not take the place of your doctor's solid medical advice. Check out the following links:

Treatment options

 

Good luck Janet. Stay in touch and let us know how you and your husband are doing!!
