Comments on: Scots prostate cancer patients denied Taxotere http://psa-rising.com/blog/index.php/2005/11/08/35/ Cancer and public health Sun, 19 Nov 2006 03:33:59 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=1.5.2 Comment on Scots prostate cancer patients denied Taxotere by: Nancy http://psa-rising.com/blog/index.php/2005/11/08/35/#comment-2 Tue, 08 Nov 2005 10:10:30 +0000 http://psa-rising.com/blog/index.php/2005/11/08/35/#comment-2 It's a disgrace that men in Scotland can't get Taxotere or Zometa . Without these drugs my brother would not have lived as long as he did. Some of the best days of my life were spent with my brother, after his prostate cancer had spread and was extremely aggressive, and during the time he was receiving these drugs. He was only 46 when he was diagnosed with metatastic hormone refractory cancer and he passed away last July at 48. I concur that there is certainly nothing more important than survival, pain control and quality of life. It’s a disgrace that men in Scotland can’t get Taxotere or Zometa .
