Hello, please can anyone help? Mike (my husband) was diagnosed with prostate cancer metastasis to the bones) last April. Treated with one dose radiotherapy and subsequently having Degarelix injection monthly. PSA originally undetectable at 0.03. PSA in March raised to 0.28 then repeated June, now raised to 1.49, we are devastated. Urology nurse said it’s ok and just repeat in 6 months,but when we mentioned how quickly it has risen agreed to ask urologist if can do in 3. Having intermittent pain in hip following exercise, resolves with rest. Had steroid injection into spine to help with pain approx 8 weeks ago. Has anyone else got bones mets and a PSA similar to Mike? He would really benefit from some support from someone who can share their experience. Despite putting on a brave face for me (I have Parkinson’s) he is very frightened.
with thanks
Moira
