Hi,went for a well man yearly checkup,and asked for a psa at the same time,(wish I hadn’t)I’m 62 fit as a fiddle,train 5/6 days out the 7 and have done for years,have no symptoms and yet my psa came back at 14.5 an examination later and I was put on a two week cancer pathway,I’ve had mri,cts an and biopsy just one left bone scan,they say my prostrate is normal size but one side is hard and seems to have a tumor pushing through it,localised advanced t3a,I devastated,just don’t know what to expect or do…?
As always, WW comments are comprehensive and perfectly pitched. Being anxious of the unknown is perfectly normal. I have a PSA, testosterone and full blood test (to check my - hopefully temporarily - depleted lymphocytes and neutrophils count) tomorrow morning and I will nervously await the outcome on my NHS App…
