Hi redcollector, my prostate Cancer went to lymph nodes, spine, ribs, pelvis and a lung. Was diagnosed Feb 2016 psa 1581 stage 4. Palliative care. On permanent hormone therapy and cemotherapy when neaded living normal life.. If i can help in any way please let me know.... Billy
As per my question I am assuming you weren't diagnosed until it had spread?
If that was the case did you not have any previous psa tests?
I am asking as my cousin also didn't get diagnosed until it had spread, unfortunately he has passed away now, so I can't ask him any questions about his symptoms.
i am currently suffering from muscle weakness in my legs with right hip pain but have not been diagnosed with PC, but cos of my cousins experience am quite worried and have that in my mind. Probably wrong of me to think that but have had urine flow issues for a few years and been diagnosed with enlarged prostate, hence my thinking.
Had no symptoms at all, odd bit of lower back pain but i was working heavy metal welding and fab and had couple of trapped nerves , i actually started being sick quite regularly turned out to be a hernia but blood test showed something wrong then psa test, then scans and biopsy to confirm lots of people don't feel ill at all that's why tests at certain age......... Billy
I was 64 when diagnosed, i kept being sick kept having tests turned out to be hurnia one of the tests showed something wrong then psa test, that was first one I'm now 68 born in June... Billy
Hi red, my cancer is controlled and OK I've other med conditions which are problems now and again. Also my darling wife has just been diagnosed with Alzheimers mini strokes and parkinsons, I'm her carer so can be awkward now and again.. Remember you haven't got it yet hopefully you won't. Best wishes............ Billy
