Scary time again. Full suite of bloods done last Friday. I get psa result tomorrow which is expected circa 50. All the rest — liver , kidney , bone , CRP, Magnesium, FBC , testosterone etc I get Friday at Onco appt. Really hoping to delay any treatment till September when I get a full suite of scans again and psa expected 100. Enjoy summer hols and full bodily functions to the full. Not keen full-stop on becoming a Monk with HT and/or Chemo at the age of 51. Still utterly pro-life as it is at the moment. Gave up HCA job as was so demanding mentally and physically, but taken up kitchen assistant at local Outward Bound centre to keep my mind off things. Will post psa tomorrow and Onco visit at weekend. Quite a long journey now at 3 1/2 yrs yet much less than others. Yet mine is a bit of an enigma — not going to treat something that every scan available can’t see. Taking my chances. Good luck all my fellow strugglers x

Push them about your enlarged gland somewhere else (can't remember where!) and if that is impacting anything

PSA up from 24 to 38 so this is the first time it hasn’t doubled in a 12 week period for about a period of 18 months. Further results at Onco Friday.
