Spuduknow update

Hi everyone

So  I said that I would let you all know how my biopsy went, 

My History

T3B N1 M0

Age now 67

Cancer spread to lymph nodes  in 2020

High risk and aggresive and Gleason 9

Sarted right away at the time on 2 years hormone treatment 

2021 Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy 

PSA 0.01 after treatment until February 2025

Then increaeed throughout the year, in February 2026 PSA was 1.7

I had a biopsy after a psma pet/ct scan which found the cancer had gone walk about

To the nodes/areas  as follows-

Abdomin 

Ribs/bones

Left side of neck 

Spine - multiple areas 

I adimted  to hospital last Sunday  and had another MRI scan as I could not get up or walk.

I was told that the cancer had also spread to multiple areas of my spine but no spinal compression 

The reason for me not walking was Multie disc degenerative disease I also have radiotherapy damage to L5-S1

I came home after 5 days in hospital with a catheter to help me and new pain relief (progabaline)

along with oromorhe which has to be stepped up from every 4 to  every 2 hours if needed. 

Also came home with a zimmer frame on wheels and a stick

My left leg is not as it should be along with left neck and shoulder pain

Pain 24/7 Stars in buttocks

middle lower background the groin down my thigh and 10/10 pain at the front from knee to my foot

(This is the multi degenerative disease mentioned above)

I'm home and taking things easy, without feeling sorry for myself 

I saw many Doctors and see th Oncologist on Tues for the bigger picture "the prognosis " and if I want the treatment offered before this happed (apalutamide) but the treatment offer may change

So thats were I'm up to for now

Love to all my friends on hear

Take care

Spud
