Just received my CT Scan results and they've come back clear . Considering my PSA was 61.4 and gleeson score of 5+4 I feel very lucky at the moment. Hope everybody else is doing ok

Had CT scan yesterday to check tissues,all other scans completed for the time being

All the best mate,had one a few weeks ago. Piece of cake after MRI ,hopefully good news ,fingers crossed

Getting my 1st hormone injection this afternoon

Hope all goes well,I've got a ct scan next week then start injections on Tuesday once every 3 months, they're hoping by then my PSA levels have come down to under 10 . If they have it'll be radiotherapy, if not another injection and another 3 month wait .

Wishing you all the best ,mine was the same and am being treated with Hormone treatment and radiotherapy.

Wouldn't that be lovely. At least I got to watch them once in Europe, against Ajax at home ,something I thought would never happen. Hopefully be able to make the trip down for another European night soon .

Thank you, to be honest I feel that the results were as good as could of have been expected. My PSA was 61 so was always fearing the worst . Just need to knuckle down and get used to the hormonal changes 1st off then onto radiotherapy. Again wishing your wife all the very best and thinking of...

Had a call from hospital yesterday, asking me in on Thursday for a consultation with the Urology consultant to discuss biopsy findings. Prior to that I'm having bone scan earlier in the day ,so will hopefully have some answers and a plan of action by Thurs evening.

Cheers mate, wishing your wife all the best . My wife went through the same thing 7 years ago, had a double mastectomy , couldn't take the chemotherapy as she was allergic to it ( ended up with sepsis twice ) her consultant said that the chemotherapy would kill her before the cancer so she had...

Thanks Sydney, yeah it is the seminal vesicles they mentioned. Just wish someone could have told me face to face and explained 2hat was happening rather 5han me trying to 2nd guess.

You would, trust me !

I think that's what happened to me, although not told at the time .

Thanks mate, I left it for awhile as I'm type 2 diabetic and peeing a lot is one of the symptoms. After speaking to doctors they put me on extra tablets which have a side effect of you guessed it , more peeing ! Only recently went and said its really bad at night when they gave me a psa test...

Received a letter this morning saying I've got T3b prostrate cancer . It was picked up on 1st mri last week . Really don't think it's right to receive this sort of news through the post ? Looking on Google it means the cancer has spread to nearby tubes but is treatable . I'm sort of relieved I...
