I received my appointment for a bone scan at the Nuclear Dept of my local Cancer Hospital for the 18 th June requested by my Dr. on the 22 nd May at my routine cancer clinic check up.
As the Dr's were not sure 5 years ago on my last scan when a small shadow was showing on my pubic bone, if it was arthritis or cancer cells that had escaped from the prostate.The Dr's put me straight on Hormone treatment as they were not sure whether it was worth operating if the cancer had already escaped the prostate !
This new bone scan is to check if the spot has changed,so fingers crossed it hasn't,but the Dr thinks it may have as my PSA is rising although it has gone up and down before.
