Thread Name: BS: Prostate cancer
Subject: RE: BS: Prostate cancer
I have currently gone through all the tests associated with Prostate Cancer.I had all the signs of this disease,constant peeing etc.
I attended the clinic and saw the specialist on many occasions with the blood count fluctuating from very high to quite low.For those that do not know,most cases of prostate cancer the reading is high.Eventually the stand in specialist decided that I had to have a
Biopsey.This involves taking samples from your rectum area of the possible infected area."Do not worry Mr Day we have given you an injection in the area to ease the pain".They lied it was like having a number of teeth extracted from the bum.
The test turned out to be negative, so many of you who think you have cancer(like I did) have not.What my problem is,is that I have an enlarged prostate which is blocking the neck of the bladder so I do not empty my bladder properly.This next phase and operation is to come.I hope these details help some of you who are worrying for no reason.
