Do people with stage 4 prostate cancer have a sudden burst of energy. A friend has been fighting his cancer for many years. Lately he has had a lot of pain. He is very pale. The next day he has a huge burst of energy says he is feeling no pain and is acting like a teenager. He worries me. Is this usual.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

This is not possible as patients usually are very sick. This is usually a denial reaction as patients are usually depressed in last stage of disease. Visit a psychiatrist in person.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
