Hello, my prostate cancer was treated with radio therapy, i was having prostrap inj for 3 years,i was having 6 monthly PSA tests ongoing with reminders and results by phone, all was under control, then the reminders stopped.
I couldn't find out the result of my last test. Due to a busy life I forgot about having my next until a few months ago and I had a PSA result of 55., cancer has returned, I then discovered my previous test had been 6 .cancer has spread to my bones and is now in my left hip .
Good Morning Plinky
A warm welcome to the group although I am so sorry t read your post. Did your team remind you of the 6 monthly tests or say you were only on them for say 3 years or did they just forget you? and what prompted you to have a new test showing a PSA of 55?
In view of the above, I assume you are back on treatment now - do you have these details?
