Hello

I have been having back pain that gets worse at night. I have also been suffering from LUTS- urine retention, polyuria, and frequent urination at night.

I have been looking at symptoms and it seems back pain for a long time coupled with other symptoms could be a sign of prostate cancer. Is there anyone who could advise on the same?

My GP appointment is still some time away.

  • Hi

    Prostate cancer is very slow to grow, not al, symptoms mean you have PC, if your worried, I would ask for an emergency appointment at your doctors, saying the pain has got worse as you’ve booked an appointment, at least you might get a phone call.

    stay safe
