My husband visited our GP in summer 2017 with slow and frequent urinating. The GP examined his prosatate and found it to be enlarged. He did not send him for a PSA test. Later that year my husband began to suffer pains in his groin area, again visited the GP and was given pain killers. The pain continued and after a couple more visits to the GP, we got the GP to agree to investigate the pains further. Xray results showed cancer on bones and lymph nodes.
We have since visited a solicitor to try to claim compensation for late diagnosis, all publicity concerning prostate cancer says that early diagnosis is vital. Our solicitor got a report from another GP who decided it wouldn’t have made any difference to the outcome. Surely he should have consulted a prostate cancer specialist?
Anyone had any similar experience? Should I try another solicitor? I am very angry about all of this and need to blame someone!!
