Hi there and thanks for the post

I am very sorry to hear about your recent diagnosis and appreciate what an anxious and worrying time this must be for you. I do hope you have family and friends to support you as well at this difficult time.

It sounds like the doctors are pretty confident that the cancer is confined within the prostate so they are likely to be carrying out the bone scan just to be extra thorough.

Unfortunately no one here can say the exact chance there is of the cancer having spread to the bones but I imagine this would be a small one. For now you need to hang in there and wait and see what the scan shows.

Waiting for test results is never easy but often people find keeping themselves busty with other things and their mind distracted can help pass the time.

I do hope everything works out for you and that you have a treatment plan very soon.

Do get back if you need to or if you prefer to talk over the phone our number is 0808 800 4040, we're here weekdays ( closed new years day) 9-5.

Take care

Naomi

Hi. 
thank you for your message. 
Things are looking as good as they can I guess! Bone scan should be very soon and fingers crossed for the right result. The nurses that are dealing with my case are lovely. 
I will keep the number in mind and call if needed but I’m determined to get this diagnosis dealt with so me and my family can move on. It has topped off an already awful year for my family too, I’ll be glad when 2024 ends and look forward to a better 2025 !
