Guest guest Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 Hi all, I'm a long time lurker whose father was first diagnosed 3 years ago. Dad's psa level on diagnosis was 19 he had radiotherapy and continues on hormone therapy. He was given the all clear and told not to come back for a year, however we decided to have a psa test halfway just for our own piece of mind and has levels were raised, 5, since then (3months or so) they have continued to rise to the current level of 29. They are not so concerned about that as they are about a large lump that has developed on his neck which they are saying is prostate cancer that has spread to the lymph nodes there. He is having a biopsy today and is already booked in for radiotherapy next week but I just wondered if anyone else has had any experience of this? I have to admit that we are all pretty scared and my own fears are if its spread to there could it be somewhere else (we will know that answer next week as he has had a number of scans) Sorry to have waffled on and I hope I have given enough background info that someone will be able to reply. I'm just feeling lost right now, which I'm sure is a feeling most of you and your families have felt. Wishing all light and love, Clare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
