I'm disappointed to advise that my prostate cancer, which made a reappearance in my right lung a little while back, is continuing to grow and spread more quickly. I'm having another PSA test in a few weeks time to confirm that the rapid rise in level over the last three months was not a aberrant reading, but it seems that my readings have turned the corner on the exponential curve. It's time to stop monitoring and get serious. I'll be having more scans to get a pre treatment baseline for what it's doing, and then anticipate starting both androgen deprivation therapy and chemo in a couple of months. As I said before, treatment is not expected to get rid of the cancer, but will keep it at bay for a while. Please keep Chris and I in your thoughts and prayers, as we continue to journey with this bloody disease. I'm still feeling fit and strong and have no symptoms, but know that will change.
