Well it appears that the radiologist who did my MRI was overly cautious. The report said I had a met on my left pelvis, one on my right pelvis, one on my sacrum, additional cancer in my prostate region and sclerotic foci in my pelvic region. Traumatic.
We followed that up with a PSMA scan 10 days later. A scary 10 days. The PSMA scan said that I had no cancer in my body. I have since also learned that the sclerotic foci is usually a benign bone lesion on the pelvis. Great news I think???
My PSA is undetectable. My testosterone is 8. I am currently on Lupron and Erleada for six more months. Ive been on both for 18 months now after radiation to the one cancerous lymph node, below the illiac artery, and my entire lower lymphatic area.
My questions to my good friends on this blog is this..
Can the PSMA scan have missed something? It seems to good to be true even though the hospital that did the MRI also did the PSMA and called me and said I was cancer free???
Also, are there any other scans that might be out there to double check to make sure the PSMA was correct. I was planning on doing four doses of chemo (docetaxel) on the back end of my treatment.....is this still an option if I am cancer free?
this blog has been great for me ......thoughts?
