Diagnosis

Raised PSA: 121, clinical diagnosis of prostate cancer
MRI shows a 92cc prostate with a right-sided tumour (T3a)(T3a)
Bone scan/CT scan - no metastases.

Plan

1. PSMA-PET scan

2. Bicalutamide 50mg OD on the day after the PET scan

3. Biopsy results in clinic and to discuss any further management

A bit more positive now. Hopefully onwards and upwards.

Hello GedExe

Thank you for your post - two bits of good news.

* The bone scan shows no metastases - the cancer hasn't gone "walkabout".

* The day you start on Bicalutamide is the day the cancer stops being fed - and the treatment journey starts.

Best wishes - Brian.

Hi GedExe it is just as we thought, final PET to check all ok and onto HT, great result and hopefully you are feeling better for knowing.

Best wishes, David
