What Is The Survival Rate Of Prostate Cancer?
My father is 69 years old with advanced prostate cancer. He is always tired and has no energy. Sleeps all the time. His stools are dark/black in colour and he is not on any form of iron tablets. How long does he have to live....... should we be worried? thanks

Hello,
Life expectancy cant be calculated accurately. Poor prognosis. Do regular follow up with nearby general physician for symptomatic relief.
