Hi my name is Peter
I was having treatment for an overactive bladder with prostate blood test as part of treatment which came back at 7.7. I then had an ultrasound, GP said I had enlarged prostate but nothing of concern. Has MRI scan as part of pathway which has revealed lesions on prostate rated 4 and 5. Having a biopsy, no noted signs of other lesions throughout body. Notes 66.9% chance of prostate cancer and really worried and having bad anxiety and not sleeping, I have the constant peeing which I thought was my over active bladder no pain peeing small leaking and sometimes stop and start to finish,I've pretty much resigned myself to having prostate cancer and finding very tough to deal with like everyone with the horrible disease, any helpful advice would be much appreciated
Kind regards
Peter

Peter
Wow.
If there was anything I thought I could teach you about it would be drinking Guinness, and you've proved me wrong AGAIN.

Changed, but not diminished.
Steve , I used to have enjoyable business trips to Ireland and just had to sample the local bevvy but it tastes different to the version which is exported.
Morning AH,
Are you both well? How was the scan yesterday? Knowing you, you already have the results?!
Lots of love
Dafna
No results on the system yet but I will be chasing it and then having a word with the GG. Thanks for asking.
Hi Psb2024.
Yes I finished taking my hormone tablets (Abliteron) a few weeks ago.
I'm still having my 3 monthly injections and I haven't experienced any side effects to date.
