Prostate cancer and Bereavement

Hi,

Sorry to hear about your awful couple of years, Let's hope things are settling down for you now.

Was your PCa a T3a or a T3b? And how has your PSA been since the radiotherapy?

And finally, did you have a course of hormone therapy injections after the radiotherapy?

Hi Gills123

Vert sorry for what is happening in your life, my wife and I send our sincere condolences, A lot of miss diagnosis happening there, mistakes all round, I remember when I was told, I had just moved house and medical practice within three months of changing and less than a month when joining the practice, they found my incurable PC. I accepted that but was very annoyed with the other practice for not picking it up, as I had lots of blood tests taken even with all I told them, tried taking it to court but no one took the case, probably too scared of losing so if ever your thinking of this, make sure you have lots of evidence on your side.

Your score are reasonable and can be treated maybe not cured, but you have plenty of years ahead, make sure you ask for all documents of meetings and scans etc, you can do the same from your doctor. I keep mine so I can ask questions when I see the oncologist again, like what’s the plan of treatment and is there a plan B, ( my wife’s favourite saying ) all this keeps you informed of how your treatments are going.

Again very sorry about your wife, but keep positive, you need to have these treatments.

Stay safe

Joe
