Prostate cancer

Having radiation treatment end of the month have been on ht for 6 months psa was 9.6 now down to 0.12 went for scan and tattoos the main concern I have haven’t been told if cancer has shrinkage or spread I think may have spread more as are doing larger area then first indication on first scan it’s very difficult getting any information about what is happening

  • I don't know if you are basing thoughts re spreading on the tattoo markings? If so I don't think any relationship to "target". My ERT was aimed solely inside the prostate, but the tatoos and thus the beam entry points were spread over quite a wide area  -  they enter at different target angles AFAIR.

    Good luck.
