Hi I am 65 years old from Ni.Ireland I had a prostate biopsy done on 23rd March 2022. I was supposed to get my results on the 13 th May.. This appointment was then cancelled until the 8th June . I actually know my results through my local GP. Results came back positive for Cancer..I don't know how severe it is ,but can I assume it's not too bad as my appointment has been delayed for another 4 weeks . I would appreciate if anyone can help. Thank you .

Hi Kate
There’s a few things that can happen after chemo, enzalutamide Arbiraterone trials, radium 223, so he has plenty to go through yet if and when it’s needed.
Stay safe
Joe
thank you, your support is much appriciated, you also stay safe
take care
Kate
Kate,
I always tried to keep my sense of humour. I could always find something to cheer myself up.
Thanks for what you said about me being a breath of fresh air. That means a lot (I can feel my eyes filling up). I still blame the Hormones for my emotions.
I need a breath of fresh air where I work. I am an Administrator at a -House. When the wind is blowing in the wrong direction!!!
Love my job though, plenty of contact with the local farmers. I even talk to the Cows. They've started talking back. They are very sociable, when new ones arrive you can hear them shouting at each other.

Kate, I don't mind at all. If I know anything or can help...
I can talk about anything now. I used to bottle up everything inside but the Cancer has helped me to open up.

as long as the cows are not shouting at you then we are all ok lol, i used to suppory ;people who suffered from being homeless, with mental health issues, with no voice, i gave my clients a voice because i always had enough for us all, not so much now though, had to give up my job, still have great memories, ah re your homones, you are a breath of frest air, i have a good support network, but love talking to you
Kate,
It's only birds and animals who talk to me. Sounds crazy doesn't it?
I could be the Dr Dolittle of the Prostate forum. Hmm!!!
