Hormone therapy

I was all ready for surgery but the bone scan has shown my cancer has spread, so hormone therapy now only thing being offered. 68 years old, gleeson 4+3,  psa5.4

Mri showed non in nymph nodes but obviously not now regarded as T2. Spots on my shoulders and rib.

 

Anyone else had this? Thanks

  • Hi Steveann,

    I'm sorry to hear this and I hope you're getting on OK - it sounds like it must have been difficult to have the plans changed.

  • Thank you Ben. As an update, I had a call at 8am this morning  from hospital saying that I am now being referred for a pet scan , to further investigate the dark spots shown  up on the bone scan,  which indicate a spread which is in complete contradiction with the biopsy that reported, N0  M0.    So, good or bad conclusion, I feel better that this pet scan will give the accurate conclusion. Thanks again.  Steve
