My husband has been diagnosed with prostate cancer last week . Bolt out of the blue as not even poorly. Currently waiting to see that it hasn’t spread . Waiting for a phone call. Then they said they were ringing at 9.30am and 3 hours later still waiting. Anxiety is through the roof. Understand there are alot of patients and staffing issues but even so .

I know the waiting causes anxiety and if you can let us know your husbands full diagnosis, Gleason score etc we can offer as much help and advice as we can.
Any problems, please come back to me.
