Worried about prognosis for my prostate cancer

Hi. I recently went through surgery to remove my prostate but at the 8 week follow up appointment I was told the cancer had spread to the seminal vesicles which were removed but cancer cells remain in seminal ducts. Referral made to oncology for radiotherapy. Cancer upgraded to T3B. Worried about the prognosis. Anyone else been through something similar?

  • Hi Magherafelt-Tobermore and welcome to the forum.

    I'm sorry to hear your cancer has spread and the worries you now have about your prognosis.

    I hope the reply you received to a similar post you made in our nurses section of the forum has helped ease your mind but hopefully some of our members who have been in a similar position will stop by soon to share their experiences and advice.

    You may also be able to connect with others with a similar diagnosis on Prostate Cancer UK.

    I know this must be really scary Magherafelt-Tobermore but we are here for you and sending all our support your way.

    Kind regards,
