Hello everyone
My Dad has been having some tests since October regarding an enlarged prostate. A his levels seemed normal, no other symptoms, clear x Ray's etc..
He then had a scan and recently received a letter saying there was an suspicious area in the anterior prostate which may be a sign of underlying cancer.
He now has to have a biopsy under general anaesthetic in 3 weeks time.
This has come to a shock, considering the doctors previously have said its probably due to age as he was displaying no other symptoms other than it being enlarged.
But why would they say it might be cancer ? Could it be possible this suspicious area is just benign?
I'm extremely worried especially as my mum already has metastatic breast cancer since 2016.
Dont know how I'd cope if both parents had it..
Appreciate any replies
