I have just found out that Sir Chris Hoy has terminal prostate cancer. If a fit 47 year old athlete can get this awful disease, any man can. He, like myself had no symptoms. There needs to be better testing and a screening process, the same as ladies have to detect breast cancer. The only way this will happen is with further research, which needs money. Our fellow Fox @Claudio Fannieri is doing a fantastic thing in doing a 5k run each day to try to raise funds. Please, for everyone's sake, donate to this wonderful cause. Ladies, please also donate, as it could be your man that gets it, and trust me, it turns your world upside down. -

I posted on here last year about my prostate cancer, but after watching that programme on BBC last night about that young girl that had breast cancer, I felt I had to tell my story again. My raised PSA level was luckily found during a routine blood check and after checks, Prostate Cancer was found, so I opted to have it removed, I thought that was the end of it. Four and a half years later, the PSA level started to rise again, so probably some infected blood escaped, either during the biopsy or surgery. The big question is where in my body had it gone to. After a few scans, it was found in my spine, T8 to be exact. Not where you want it, as it cant be cured when it has got into bone. At present, I am on a hormone therapy treatment to slow the growth, as Prostate cancer is driven by testosterone. At the moment my PSA level is fairly stable, but the cancer will find a way past the treatment, thats when I will get further scans to see if it has spread to any other parts of my body. This is scarily similar to the girl whose breast cancer had spread, first spine, then brain, then other parts, so guess mine will go the same. Just hoping I can be around for a few more years. Please please guys, get checked, as the earlier it is found the more chance of beating it. Although no real symptoms, having a poor flow when peeing could be a sign. The test is a simple blood test. I cant understand why ladies have breast screening, but nothing for Prostate cancer for men. Prostate Cancer will take sons from mothers, husbands from wives, fathers from kids, grandads from grandkids, brother from siblings, the list goes on, so its not just men that are affected. Please dig deep and give as much as you can as this will help research beat this awful disease. Steve -
