I have been sent to an urologist by my family doctor in 2001, but after a superficial check, I went home happy that no issues were found.
An year after, I’ve been diagnosed with prostate cancer with a Glison score of 7. In February 2003 I had the prostatectomy and a glison score of 8. Six months after surgery I started radiation therapy for about 34 days.
Everything was fine after that for three years. Then I started the Lupron! Still doing it. Next year it will be 20 years! Unbelievable lucky 🍀!
But it’s not all. Five years ago my bladder started bleeding 🩸 and unbelievable pain and blood clots. Radiation! Now I have a Supra pubic catheter and the pain is on and off, depending on the nurse.
