Hi went to receive my results from my PSMA hoping that I had no more than the 3 small lesions had not grown or increased as to allow targeted radiotherapy. It was not to be as I now have spots to lymph nodes , peritoneum & one rib. My Oncologist was as gobsmacked as I was. Straight on the chemotherapy next week which hopefully buys me some time. Good luck to all who are hit with this horrible disease. First detection was 2013 & after 9 good years my luck has certainly deserted me of late. All the best & keep the faith.

Geez. What lousy news. I've seen plenty of posts on this site with people who have had spread who keep it in check via chemotherapy and other drugs. I wish you the best of luck in your treatment and keep fighting this lousy "C".

Ron were you on active surveillance at the time , or had you completed some form of treatments, or had ongoing treatments? You say you had 9 years where things were not an issue ...how you doing now . Keep the faith ... I had a friend similar to this , he is very good now and lives 1/2 the year in SE Asia and is having the time of his life and feels great ! SO Hang in there . James on Vancouver Island .
