My partner received a call last Tuesday from our GP practice with the results of his MRI, which was to tell us he had prostate cancer that had spread to bones. We had to wait until yesterday for the call to go through the next stages. Today we were called in for the biopsy and to get him started on hormone injections. We are very grateful they saw us a day after finding out the next steps into his diagnoses and treatment (due to a cancellation) However, we met the cancer specialists nurse afterwards who administered the injections (Loading dose) She also went through the full findings and the bone spread is in the pelvis, femur, right hip bone but advised the spine was clear. They automatically did a bone scan due to his age (47) and have requested more tests to see if the bladder has been affected and a CT scan to check the whole body for cancer. The CNS advised she feels the biopsy score will likely be a 4 or 5 due to the spread of the cancer. My partner had a genetic test on the biopsy to see if he has inherited a gene. This could mean my daughter might be a carrier too. They are talking about triple therapy. 1. Hormone injections, 2. Hormone tablets and 3. Chemo. He has started the hormone injections today which is really good. The CNS said we are still looking at years not months or weeks, but I'm in complete shock. This man hasn't been to a GP for over 20 years, never had any symptoms until April. I'm soo scared what this means for his quality of life and what we have in terms of 'years'. I know I shouldn’t but I'm so frightened of what might be. We have a 4 year old who starts school in September. I just hope we have good quality time together and many years to come even after this awful information today.
