PSA blood tests 6 monthly

I would chase up, especially as things seem to be loosening, I’ve had a couple during lockdown, different situation.  

Hey, I tried calling but answer machine for specialist nurses, so I’ve left it but now slightly concerened

I’m so worried about my incontinence, and lack of erectile dysfunction, I’m so unhappy no one understands, no one to talk to

How often do you usually have your bloods done? We only went into lockdown on 23rd March. Where I live bloods aren’t being done at our local hospitals due to Covid, they’re being done at clinics, but they’re still being done. You need to check with your consultant. All the best 

Oncology specialist nurses are so difficult to make contact with. Most hospitals provide counselling services for their cancer patients. 

Please ring Macmillan. I really feel for you. I know how i would feel if i wasn't on hormone therapy. Hormone therapy is a blessing as well as a curse

Hi normally ever three months, but I’m sure it’s been over a year now, no contact

I guess I’m lucky as I opted for the full radical, non nerve sparing surgery probably saved my life but my mental health is bad due to incontinece and irrectile disjunction I’m really struggling

Hi, you must chase this ASAP. Unfortunately anything other than Covid appears to be falling by the wayside at present. Call your oncologists secretary on Monday, or perhaps your GP can sort this. Personally I always go direct to the horses mouth. During these times we have to push. Good luck
