Can anyone explain this blooming cancer?
For months my PSA has been rising albeit slowly, and I have had a bone scan cause of a few niggles and it showed a hotspot on the LHS of my sacrum bone, yes, recently sitting on harder seats wasn't much fun but a cushion sorted it. Well my PSA fell slightly last blood test, happie chappie.
Did some exercises for a arthritic knee as usual in the morning then during that night my right thigh had a burning and tingling senation all over, spoke to specialist nurse the next day, you're seeing enza team on Monday mention it them, by now the burning has eased but tingling is now constant from ankle to groin and hip.
The Monday meeting changed from the normal chat and collect tablets, to a phone call to oncology, then go to pharmacy for more steroids (hate them) and some food to eat before taking tablets, meanwhile a mri scan had been sorted for Tuesday morning, on that evening got a call to say spine looks clear you can stop taking the dreaded steroids and we'll continue to check the scan. On Thursday at prearranged call with the oncology consultant he explained a spot has been found that could be causing symptoms, now I'm being put forward for one off radiotherapy within a couple of week's.
I didn't see that coming before doing the simple exercises for my knee, all I can say is a massive thank you to all the team looking out for me at Sunderland.
Who says exercise is good for you!! :-)
