Gremlin, I am quite happy for this to be an open subject. I will bore anyone about this, as many of my colleagues will testify. The more of us who are open about it the more others will realise getting tested and possible outcomes should have no fears.

Hi BB - I had surgery on my prostate, which involved burning away part of it from the inside. What gave me the confidence to go for it was the attitude of the surgeon, which was very matter of fact. I can’t imagine the discomfort from a total removal is any worse than having part of it burnt off, so I’d say go for it, don’t worry about it, enjoy the drugs |

That's another reason I posted on here Tommy, I don't do social media, I actually hate all social media. If it was posted on the likes of FB, they know everything about you and then you'd probably get some unscrupulous fraudster trying to trick you out your hard earned beer vouchers. There's that anonymity on here, though have met a couple of members on here when buying and selling. Unlike social media where everyone posts pics of themselves in a hospital bed just to garner likes, sympathy and replies, the sad times we live in eh?

Had my PSA blood test a couple of days ago. Not got the results yet. Was very lucky to be sent for an ultrasound liver scan in 2023 where they discovered I had renal cancer. Caught it in time and had my right kidney removed. Scans are showing clear at the moment. Like everyone else I had no symptoms at all.

Thanks for sharing Ivan, it's good that we can all share our experiences and shows that we can talk about it.
